NPiP Session 1-Braincamp

Brain Camp! With your learning pod:

Our brain takes in information about our environment and generates our experience of the world. There is no mind brain duality—only the brain. Grab some Play-Doh and explore the foundational structure of the brain as a first step to understanding facets of biological psychiatry.

** Recommended Play-Doh set (if don’t already own): buy from Amazon hereYou can also get Play-Doh from many different stores (try the toy aisle of a pharmacy). Want to make your own version of play-dough? In a bowl, mix 1 cup of cold water, 1 cup of salt, and 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil. Gradually add 3 cups of flour and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until the mixture is the consistency of bread dough. Use either tempera paint or food coloring to add color. Store tightly sealed. The activity uses 4 colors of play-dough.
