Question

1. Describe - or draw - basic components of the nervous system. At

minimum, include these six terms: axon, dendrite, myelin,

neurotransmitter, cerebral cortex, hemispheres.

2. Consider a young person's motor skill development. It can be your own

child, a child in your life, or yourself (if you have an older family member

who remembers these). Talk about their motor skill milestones using

terminology that the authors use, and refer to dynamic systems theory.

3. Talk about the development (or research study) of depth perception in

infants in 4-5 sentences of detail. You can describe cues that infants use

to figure out and perceive depth, or the kind of research studies done with

depth perception. Your writing should include at least 2 terms from the

Depth section of our textbook on pages 81-82.

4. Find a Theory of Mind (TOM) false-belief test video online (or try one out

in person if you have a preschooler in your life!). Describe the test, the age

of the participant, and the results. How does that compare with the

textbook information?
