|
Definition
| Specific term meaning: The brain changes how it uses existing parts of the brain to do related tasks. (e.g., areas for visual processing used for auditory processing by those who are blind; or the left hemisphere's language abilities being performed by the right hemisphere by a person who had a stroke) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The quantity and quality of your brain's neurons and their connections are what allow you to perceive, attend to, remember, process, and express information. In short they control everything you know and everything you do. The term that best matches this statement is? |

Term
|
Definition
| A record of past perceptions (concrete or abstract). |

|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Memories that cannot be articulated- meaning expressed or explained (One is able to play a guitar, but is not able to explain how this is done: as playing music is something that is done, not explained. The same goes for walking, writing ones name, and so on.) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Model stating: Neuro/physical-differences (sensory, physical, emotional, cognitive, communication and social ) arise from one's genes, brain structure, and chemistry, which are in turn tempered by environmental influences. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The neurodiversity model would argue that all brains learn (form the same quantity and quality of neuro connections) when exposed to the same methods and materials, in the same amounts and environments, under the same levels of assistance. |
|

Term
|
Definition
| Perceptual information gained through ones thoughts |
|

Definition
| Memories one can articulate- meaning express/explain (e.g., One can articulate what is a guitar or piano, but not how to play one- which is something they can only do.) |

Term
|
Definition
| Specialized cells in the brain/body that store and send information, In your brain you have over 100 billion of them which make over 100 trillion connections to other such cells. |

Term
| Abstract processing XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX |
|
Definition
| The brain making connections between sets of information and predictions about what should happen next |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The brain makes connections and predictions as a result of information actively coming through the 5 senses. (e.g., You, rather than imaging if you were to you actually do it). |
