The Brain and the Internet Compared

Maria Montessori had a remarkable understanding of the development of a child's brain given the absence of sophisticated methods of study. The Montessori method of education grew out of  detailed observations and interactions with children. Her discoveries have been verified by recent research. It would be very interesting to see how Montessori would have adapted her method in light of the rapid growing technology. Brain Power: from Neurons to Network uses great graphics, analogies, and kid pictures to help the viewer understand more about the child's brain. The conclusion; ( like Montessori!) interactions with humans are critical to the development of new ideas, incite and creative thinking.Attention is the brain's most valuable resource!
