Learning in the Brain: Oversimplified

This is the talk Julia recorded in preparation for the opening session of the JALT/TESOL conference (see Stress and the Bilingual Brain below for details). She was limited to 4 minutes so couldn't look at dendritic branching, long-term potentiation, the role of attention, how working memory consolidates to long-term memory, or many other key topics. This is just a teaser to wet your whistle and get you interested in learning more about the brain. Enjoy!
