Book excerpt: Este libro, increíblemente accesible, está pensado para que cualquier docente, padre, madre o monitor de tiempo libre que busque estimular y divertir a los niños y niñas, pueda sumergirles en el mundo de la Ciencia. Con estos 100 experimentos científicos, tanto clásicos como innovadores, se pretende fomentar el atractivo de este ámbito esencial de la vida, a través del trabajo en grupo y el espíritu crítico. Los estudiantes descubrirán, por sí mismos o en colaboración con otros, los principios científicos básicos en contextos relevantes y significativos. Además, los jóvenes científicos desarrollarán habilidades básicas y prácticas como la observación, la medición, la recopilación de datos, la comunicación... todas ellas transversales a otras muchas áreas de conocimiento presentes en el currículum. Cada experimento consta de los siguientes apartados: objetivos, conocimientos previos, materiales, seguridad y apuntes técnicos, desarrollo, posibilidades de individualización y profundización. Al final del libro se incluye un índice de contenidos científicos, donde se reflejan los temas que se exploran con cada experimento, entre los que se encuentran: los seres vivos, los materiales cotidianos y su uso, las propiedades, cambios y estados de la materia, el sonido, la luz y la electricidad.

Download or read book Mega Brain written by Michael Hutchinson and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 1996-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists have learned more about the brain in the last decade than in all of previous history, and the implications of the latest research are clear: The human brain is far more powerful, and has the potential for immensely greater growth and transformation, than was ever before imagined. These discoveries may constitute the most significant development in learning since the invention of writing. Michael Hutchison captures all the drama, excitement, and adventure as we finally begin to comprehend the most mysterious and complex structure in the universe, the source of human culture, a still untapped reservoir of power and skills. He looks at the recently developed machines and devices that may soon allow us to increase brain size and intelligence; regenerate brain cells; trigger specific brain states such as euphoria, long- and short-term memory, sexual excitement, and creativity; and control the brain's electrical activity in order to alter such "involuntary" mechanisms as blood pressure, heart rate, and the secretion of hormones. Megabrain is a lucid and lively account of where the pioneers in brain research are headed -- and where they are taking us.
