An overview of teen development and parenting today's adolescence. Brain and social development, as well as depression and general mental health issues.
What is different about the teenage brain? Brain development happens over time and generally occurs back to front. This means that the frontal lobe, and pre-frontal cortex, which control executive functions, and are critical to decision making, are some of the last areas of the brain to fully develop.
Other parts of the brain, including those involved with thrill-seeking behavior, reward mechanisms, and intense emotion, come online earlier in the process.
Just as a toddler is able to walk before he or she has the judgment to stay away from dangerous situations (such as the top of a flight of stairs), teenagers can also find themselves in precarious situations for which they are not adequately prepared, from a brain development point of view.
This partly explains some of the risk-taking behavior and poor decision making that is often associated with teens.
Teenage is a person between 13 to 18 years old. ¨The word puberty is derived from the Latin pubertas, which means adulthood. ¨Puberty is initiated by hormonal changes triggered by a part of the brain called the hypothalamus, which stimulates the pituitary gland, which in turn activates other glands as well.
¨These changes begin about a year before any of their results are visible. ¨Both the male reproductive hormone testosterone and female hormone estrogen are present in children of both sexes.
In this seminar I will be covering the sexual problems that teenagers go through and find it difficult to deal with.
Its will cover various topics like
1. How parents discuss body parts
2. Hormonal glands and hoe sexual organs develop.
3. Growth and development in an adolescent
4. Does maturing early or late have a life long effect?
5. Is there a right time for discussing sexuality?
6. Period problems
7. Poly cystic ovaries
8. Wet dreams
9. Erectile dysfunction

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
8. • Brain scans, controlled studies, evolutionary psychology,
and anthropology demonstrate that men and women are
not the same!
• We are physically & mentally different.
9. •We input, process and deliver
information differently.
•We evolved with different priorities,
and we are marinated in different
combinations of hormones.
•This leads to a misaligned
interpretation of reality, which creates
conflict, not only in our love lives, but
in our family lives, and the lives of our
children.
10. 1. Men & women don't see
in the same way
For example:
-The male retina is thicker
– It has more M cells (magnocellular)
– M cells are larger and are distributed across the
retina
– M cells are responsible for tracking the movement of
objects
11. 1. Men & women don't see
in the same way
-The female retina is thinner
– It has more P cells (parvocellular)
– P cells are smaller & concentrated around the center of
the retina
– P cells are responsible for identifying objects & analyzing
texture and color
12. 2. Female babies like faces, male
babies like moving objects
• This isn't surprising, since – as we just learned – males
and females see differently.
• Over 100 infants were studied on the day of their birth.
They were given a choice between looking at a young
woman's face or a dangling mobile.
13. • The researchers were not told the sex of the babies while
they recorded their eye movement. The boys were twice
as likely to prefer gazing at the mobile and the girls were
more likely to look at the face.
• In the first few months of life, a baby girl's eye contact and
mutual facial gazing will increase by over 400% while the
boys will show significantly less improvement.
14. 3. Boys and girls like to
draw different things
– Most girls prefer drawing people, animals, and plants,
arranged symmetrically & facing the viewer.
– They're more likely to use lots of color and the colors
they use tend to be warm.
– Boys mostly draw action scenes with dynamic
movement.
– It's not common for them to use more than 6 colors, and
the colors they do use tend to be cool.
15. 4. Females hear better than males
• In the brain centres for language and hearing, women
have 11% more neurons than men (Brizendine. “The
Female Brain” 5)
• Females not only hear better, but can discern between a
broader range of emotional tones in the human voice.
16. • Women are designed to be nurturers, so hearing &
interpreting their infant's cries is kind of an important skill.
• A study of infants on the day of their birth showed that
girls will respond more to the cries of another baby than
boys.
17. 5. Females can verbally express
their emotions better than males
• Researchers found out that in children, negative
emotions were localized in the primitive area of the brain,
the amygdala.
• This part of the brain has few direct connections to the
language & reasoning center in the cerebral cortex,
which is why it's difficult for most kids to verbally express
how they feel.
18. • Then in adolescence, a large portion of the brain activity
associated with negative emotion moves up from the
amygdala to the cerebral cortex…but this change only
happens in girls.
• A study from Germany duplicated this finding, and went
on to conclude that both positive and negative emotions
are processed differently in males and females post
puberty.
19. • Judging by this, it's no surprise that men rarely want to
"talk about it.
• Men are wired to avoid contact with others when they are
going through a rough time & even report thinking women
would want to do the same.
• So before you get mad at your male classmate and think
that his stupid, for his silence, remember that it's literally
difficult for him to verbalize his feelings.
20. 6. Boys naturally use
movement to think
• Boys and girls of grade school age were studied to see
how long it took them to solve conceptual math problems.
• The boys solved the problems faster than the girls.
• The researchers noted that when asked to explain how
they got the answer, most of the boys gave an
explanation without using any words; they wiggled, acted
and gestured their process! Words were a barrier.
21. • So over the following few weeks the researchers taught
the girls to explain their answers with movement and then
retested everyone.
• The girls were now able to solve the math problems as
quickly as the boys.
• It seems that the male and female brains have access to
the same circuitry but use differently circuitry by default.
22. 7. Groups of boys play
differently than groups of girls
Boys
• larger play groups
• they focus on the game itself
• rough n' tumble
• very competitive
• confrontational
• establish dominance & test hierarchies
• claim territory and monopolize toys
• show off their physical strength
• struggle for social rank
• and are more likely to use threats
23. Girls
• focus on relationship building
• take turns 20 times more often than boys do
• more likely to make collaborative proposals (like starting
their sentences with let's)
• their pretend play is usually about caregiving and
relationships
24. • By the time boys are in first grade they get a dopamine
rush when they display their power, and some studies
have indicated that unanimously agreed upon hierarchies
will form in nursery school, and stay stable for at least 6
months.
• And the boys at the top are not necessarily the biggest;
they're the boys who are least likely to back down during
a conflict.
25. • Even males castrated shortly after birth and raised as
females still tend to be the dominant ones in the group.
(Harris, Judith Rich. “The Nurture Assumption” 222)
• You know what's the most interesting thing about group
play? That when given the option, boys and girls naturally
segregate. This only changes when there's not enough
kids, then boys and girls all play together.
26. 8. Boys are more likely to take risks
• Researchers in Missouri studied the responses of kids
that rode a stationary bicycle while watching a hyper-
realistic simulation.
• When confronted with a hazard, the boys were much
slower to break than the girls.
27. • If it was real, many of the boys would have been seriously
injured.
• The boys also reported feeling excited during a simulated
collision, while the girls reported feeling fearful.
28. 9. Females are easier to startle
• This was demonstrated in a ‘scary stimuli study’ that
measured fear through electrical conductivity in the skin.
• 10. Women also exhibit a
stronger emotional response
to the anticipation of pain
29. 11. Males are more likely to die from an
accident than females
• Boys are way more likely to do dangerous things
(especially if other boys are around).
• -They're way less likely to listen to the warnings of their
parents.
• -And way less likely to tell anyone if they had an accident.
30. • Research at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh
Pennsylvania discovered that there's a difference in the
way brain cells die after injury in males & females.
• Once brain injury occurs, levels of glutathione, (a
molecule that helps brain cells survive oxygen
deprivation) remain stable in females, yet drops up to
80% in males, resulting in greater brain cell death.
31. • This could also be a vital contributing factor to the
difference in the overall longevity of men and women.
32. 12. Men are more likely to perceive a
neutral face as unfriendly
• During puberty, vasopressin (influences defend your turf
behavior, works with testosterone, and has a stronger
effect in men) influences a boy's brain to perceive neutral
faces as unfriendly.
• Researchers in Maine gave teenagers a single dose of
vasopressin and found that the girls were more likely to
rate neutral faces as friendly, while the teen boys rated
neutral faces as unfriendly or hostile.
33. 13. Males are more likely to exhibit aggression
physically while females are more likely to exhibit
aggression verbally
34. • A male's aggression pathways are more directly
connected to brain areas for physical action.
• A female's aggression pathways are closer linked to
verbal functions.
• Males have a larger amygdala which is the centre for
aggression.
• Females have a larger and faster maturing prefrontal
cortex which is responsible for inhibiting aggression.
35. • – Males have a more active right amygdala which is
linked to taking action & negative emotions.
• – Females have a more active left amygdala which
responsible for mental reaction rather than physical
reaction.
36. • -Some men have what is called auto-catalytic anger,
which means it becomes self reinforcing, it inhibits their
fear and actually produces sensations of pleasure. -
Although a woman is slower to act out of anger physically,
her verbal response is difficult to stop once it gets going.
37. • Although a woman is slower to act out of anger physically,
her verbal response is difficult to stop once it gets going.
These brain differences exist because they've helped our
survival.
• Females are generally smaller than males so being
violent towards someone stronger than you is a good way
to put an end to your genetic legacy.
• Females are often vulnerable because of pregnancy and
infants; their survival is contingent on being part of a
social group. Because females have to band together for
protection, fighting other females can be just as risky to
their life.
38. • Another reason females created with brain circuitry that
helps prevent physical outbursts is to decrease the
likelihood of harming their own children.
• A male’s survival is linked to his rank, dominance and
power, and these things, even today, can be attained by
physical confrontation.
39. • But aggression isn't necessarily bad.
• Males are also the valiant defenders of their tribe, their
land and their family; these things all need physical acts
of violence.
• If you’re still unconvinced, look to the modern jungle: high
school.
• Boys fight with fists, girls fight with gossip.
