  1. Wow! I am so thankful for this video! I was just telling a friend yesterday that I think more and more people are being overloaded with negative emotions and ideas. I was telling her that I see a connection in the social media explosion and the negative posts that we are inundated with daily. This really focuses on the idea I was trying to share and I cannot wait to share this video! YES!

  2. I just shared this video with my high school students who have NO idea of why they need to learn the things they need to learn and how every interaction with technology, information, emotion, etc. affects how strong their brain is. Let's hope…

  3. Need more verification on the content of this video. Please don't directly trust the content of this video but use it as a reference.

  4. Children's brains are built better for learning as they are constantly changing and growing. It is necessary to feed their brains early on in order to create as many connections as possible.

  5. I'm not sure why it was necessary to link the Internet with our brain since they really aren't the same at all but I get the gist of the metaphor and appreciate the historical implications of our quest to understand our thought-process. Also, couldn't help thinking about science-fiction movies where the connections never stop being made even into adulthood – where you have people using the majority of their 'processing power'. How possible is that and at what age do we stop making so many connections?

  6. I think it is so important to have at least 2-3 waking hours a day without any type of electronic devices. I try to do this and meditate instead, and I feel that it has greatly improved my mental focus.

  7. This video reminds me of a quote by Yoda: “Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.” Attack of the Clones
    We have an awesome responsibility to be a positive influence on our children's brain development as their brains are in constant flux, making new connections whether good or bad, and pruning other prior connections whether good or bad. What are we exposing them to … ?

  8. We are building the Phidippus Project on and around many of your ideas. This film is a model for training those getting involved. We are extending beyond our fingertips to engage a new species in our own cognitive development. Our "isms" are wired along with our phobias. Wars don't change minds. Genifer changes them daily. facebook.com/firstgenifer
