Thoughts: Shoshana, Geneva, Mattie, and Jenna

Thoughts that have been "sticking-out" so far after the "brain-drain" are listed below:

Shoshana-Brain, Conversation, Sharing

Geneva-God, Man-Kind, Connected

Mattie-Diversity, Brain & Science, Open-Ended

Jenna-Discussion, Dialogue, Loop

Some common themes after the "brain-drain" for Week One are:

-Conversation and the sharing of ideas between people. In our group we discussed the value of listening to one another and sharing ideas with one another. Through doing this throughout the first week, our group has realized how important it is to listen to one another and share ideas, especially if these ideas are new.

-How connected everything is. There seems to be a relationship between the ideas that we have discussed throughout the institute so far. After the conclusion of week one there seems as though there is a web of ideas that are related.

-Lastly, (perhaps after the discussion of the brain on Friday) one of the main ideas seems to be the brain. Specifically, new ideas on how the brain functions and the relationship between education and the brain.
