and Functions
Brain
-one of the most
complex organs in the
human body
-consists of 3 regions:
forebrain, midbrain and
hindbrain
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Fore brain
-uppermost region of the
brain
-includes the cerebrum,
thalamus, hypothalamus,
and the limbic system
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Midbrain
-located between the
forebrain and hindbrain
-responsible for motor
movements particularly
the visual and auditory
processing.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Hindbrain
-situated at the back of the
head
-receives information from
the sensory system and the
spinal cord to regulate
balance, postures, and
coordinate movement
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Cerebrum
-largest part of the brain
covered by the cerebral cortex.
-regulates senses, memory,
emotions, intellectual
activities, and body movement
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions

Cerebral cortex
-responsible for processing
information.
-divided into two hemispheres:
the right cerebral hemisphere
controls the left side of the body
while the left cerebral hemisphere
controls the right side of the body.

Four Lobes
01. Frontal Lobe
02. Parietal Lobe
03. Temporal Lobe
04. Occipital Lobe
 Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Four Lobes
01. Frontal Lobe
-situated at the front part of
the brain which controls
memory, emotion, stress
response, speech,
decision making, and
planning.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Four Lobes
02. Parietal Lobe
-situated near the back
of the frontal lobe
which regulates
sensory perception.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Four Lobes
03. Temporal Lobe
-located at the side of
the head which
regulates memory,
hearing, and
comprehension.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Four Lobes
04. Occipital Lobe
- situated at the back of
the head which
regulates sight.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Thalamus
-connected to
cerebral cortex that
sends, receives,
and organize
information.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions

Thalamus
 Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Hypothalamus
-located below the thalamus
and above the brainstem which
links the nervous system with
the endocrine system that
regulates digestive process and
is also responsible for growth
and development.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions

Hypothalamus
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Limbic System
-composes parts of cerebral
cortex and hypothalamus
which regulates various
types of emotions that affect
blood temperature and
blood pressure facilitated by
the hypothalamus.
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes and Functions

Limbic System
Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Brain stem
-formed by midbrain and
hindbrain; located at the
lower part of the brain
which leads to spinal cord
-connects the cerebrum
and cerebellum to the
spinal cord
 Lesson: Brain: Parts, Processes
and Functions
Brain stem
-composes nerve fibers that carry
signals to and from all parts of the body
-its functions are for safety and survival
as it regulates breathing,
consciousness, heart rate, body
temperature, blood pressure,
digestion, and wake and sleep cycles

Mastery-Oriented Learner
 Who are the Performance-oriented
learners?

o Learners who feel satisfaction from receiving recognition

that accompanies any achievement. They are motivated
by the opportunity to be recognized for their hard work
at studying.
 Who are the Mastery-oriented
learners?

o Learners who feel satisfaction from the feeling that

they understand the topics discussed and have
developed a sense of competence and proficient. They
are motivated by the opportunity to learn new
knowledge and develop new skills.
 Which is a better goal –
performance or mastery?
Some well-known individuals and
their experience of being students
 - The 1921 Novel Prize Winner for Physics
- Known for his theory of relativity
- He was not able to speak until age 4 and
wasn’t able to read at age 7.
- His grades in school was so bad where
his teacher encouraged him to quit
studying
- He also expelled and rejected from
ALBERT EINSTEIN other schools

Failure is success in progress

 - Known for his theory of evolution – On the
Origin of Species - 1859

In his childhood years, he spent hours

watching birds and lying under the dining-
room table, reading.

He despaired of learning Latin and memorizing

verse, for every verse was forgotten in 48
CHARLES DARWIN hours.
- But he never tired of studying

This is…MIND MAPPING
 Lesson: Mind Mapping

Mind Mapping
-otherwise known as brain mapping
-popularized by author and consultant, Tony Buzan
-highly effective way of getting information in and out
of your brain.
-a creative and logical means of note-taking and note-
making that literally "maps out" your ideas.
