All About the Brain

From the Canadian Institutes of Health Research: Institute of Neurosciences, Mental Health and Addiction, “The Brain from Top to Bottom” is an interactive, self-directed learning environment. The site is a fantastic resource as it is searchable by topic, by student knowledge level, depth of presentation level, by module, or by guided tour. The site is very well organized and contains an impressive amount of relevant information for professional educators and others. The website is full of explanations, illustrations, charts, diagrams, pictorial representations, and photos. All of the site information is “copylefted,” which is defined by the site as follows: “The concept of 'copyleft' is a method of providing free access to the results of original work and of encouraging people to reproduce and even modify this work on an equally free basis.” Super cool!
