Brain Development Lecture

Tonight we went to a lecture about brain development and how it is effected with substance abuse. I thought that the information was very valueable and that middleschoolers could benefit from this knowledge. However, the lecturer's approach was not as effective as it could have been. I did like the animation, however, I felt that she over did it which created a distraction from the topic that she was discussing. I also felt that some of the lecture was too childish for middle schoolers. From this lecture I learned that it is important to not overdue special affects and also to be aware of the age group you are addressing.
