In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
We will be using a brain atlas that contains MRI images of a human brain. I will be going through it on my screen and sharing my screen. I will also give the students an opportunity to explore the brain themselves using the link. No account is required. See: https://www.med.harvard.edu/aanlib/
