Feedback:

You impressed me with your submission for this assignment girl!!  To begin, I thoroughly enjoyed how you provided a clear identification for each specific brain structure.  This helps establish your knowledge of the function to ensure proper application.  Each application uniquely gives your perspective of driving highlighting all of the ways in which the brain plays a major role in allowing this to happen!

1.      Cerebellum– I like how you apply the role this plays with balance and coordination but also the demonstration of procedural memory! 

2.      Medulla- mastery 

3.      Pons–mastery 

4.      Reticular formation –mastery 

5.      Thalamus – You clearly show knowledge that this is the sensory switchboard for all senses except smell!

6.      Hypothalamus

7.      Amygdala –mastery 

8.      Hippocampus –mastery 

9.      Corpus Callosum–mastery 

10.  Frontal Lobe (which contains the motor cortex) –

a.       Broca’s area (14)  –  Broca's Area controls your "Boca" (if you are familiar with Spanish, this is a great memory aid for the national exam!)

11.  Temporal Lobe: auditory cortex – Easy to remember when you think about the location of your temples =)

a.       Wernicke’s area (15)  -mastery 

12.  Occipital Lobe (which contains the visual cortex) –mastery 

13.  Parietal Lobe (which contains somatosensory cortex) – mastery
