We hope that this will be a dynamic resource for everyone on campus who is pursuing
a better understanding of how the brain learns. If you are looking for a study group
or just have resources about 'learning and the brain' to share, this is a place to
connect with the broader group. Feel free to create message boards, post meetings
of study groups, and upload resources. You will find the 'course' in your K-State
Online Organizer at online.ksu.edu. Check it out!
