Review:
motor symphony, central pattern generation, distributed (no conductor), genetics/experience, corollary discharge, effects on input, expectation, choice, neocortex as inhibitor and creator of novel patterns ...
I-function less good than unconscious at many tasks involving uncertainty, multiple variables; better at new tasks, and at "alerting" when things don't go "right"
One more motor side idea; purpose, multiple purposes
Go on to input side
- Multiple inputs, unconscious/"I-function" distinction
- Brain "making things up"
- Built in presumptions of "reality"
- Ambiguity as fundamental
- Testing and retesting
- Again an unconscious/"I-function" distinction in abilities/uses
- Perception an exploratory process, testing and retesting
What PARTICULAR aspect of our discussions of the motor and sensory sides of the nervous system seem MOST useful for your classroom, for your teaching in general? Write some thoughts/questions in the institute forum area.
