Ms Schulze’s AP Psychology Rhinos went deep into the biology of the mind last week with two hands-on challenges: Split Brain Challenge 🧠 simulating what it’d be like to be a split-brain patient! By forcing our left and right hemispheres to work independently, we discovered just how vital the corpus callosum is for daily communication. 🎨💬 And Neuron Model Building with 3D examples from scratch mapping the exact path of action potential from dendrite to axon terminal. ⚡️

Shoutout to our amazing students for bringing the textbook to life! đź‘Ź
