Problem:
This week's focus will be on eugenics, which highlights that for much of history, personal change was deemed impossible. Historical evidence shows that the science of the time influenced political and social policies, notably through the sterilization of those seen as 'unfit'. Instead of providing opportunities for assistance, there was a focus on isolation and elimination.
Consider the following:
1. Did the article raise any concerns about potential misuse of information?
2. How can we envision reversing the adverse effects of poverty on brain development using the concept of neuroplasticity?
3. What does the TEDx talk suggest about the influence of a child's environment on their development? Need Assignment Help?
4. What are the implications of this week's learnings for creating positive change?
