Reading Assignment Unit 3: Bernstein Ch. 3 Cornell Notes Due Wed. Oct. 1st


Read and take notes on the Biological Basis of Behavior, Chapter 3 in the Bernstein Text. Start making index cards of key terms and look over the study guide.


You will receive your official assignment sheet at our next class. This sheet will tell you which study guide exercises will be due on the 1st.

This is one of the most challenging chapters for many students. Read it a few pages each day to break it up and review as you go.

Hey Magaly,

Thanks for letting me know what you think and for letting me know how you think I can help.

Keep trying hard and don't forget to draw some diagrams. You can also think up some mnemonic devices such as, "the hippocampus is involved in the formation of new memories so I'll think of an image of a hippo remembering something." www.birdsasart.com/n147.htm Print out the image of the hippo and draw a thought bubble saying, ""i" before "e" except after "c"" or some other memorizing thing.
