The effect of technology

on brain development!!!!

By: Gaby Mata period:6

Standards!! Semester 1,2.

4d: students know how specialization of cells in multicellular organism is usually due to different patterns of gene differences in the genes themselves.

9b: students know how the nervous system mediates communication between different parts of the body and the body’s interactions with the environment.

Brain development!!!!!

Sitting a young child in front of the television for hours also prevents that child from having hours of other development experiences.

Shocking numbers we have in our lives!!!!

We have 150,000 hours of life between the ages of 1-18.

we spend 50,00 hours of sleep in those ages,

we we spend 65,000 hours of our life with family and friends ,

we spend 35,000 hours and other activities

we spend 12,000 hours in school as twice as much as technology.

Genetics !!!!!!!!

Genetics play a hug role in our brain development.

Genetics deals with the molecular structure and the function of genes, gene behavior in context of a cell or organism.

Technology changes use and we change it !!!!!!!!!

The more we improve technology, the more the technology changes our whole lives.

We depend on technology for some jobs , activities, and even homework.

Computers !!!!!!!!

Most people spend at least 2 hours on the computer.

This can change our minds from past generation.

They use lots of internet and electronics like face book, twitter, Ipods , phones and more

Computers and their dangers!!!!!!

Adult minds can change but computers can damage the brain of little kids even worse, in 2005, children used the internet about 7.1 hours per week. In 2007, children used the internet 13.8 hours per day
