In the Animated Brain we have made every effort to give you a learning tool that simplifies the study of brain and behavior and even makes it enjoyable. The result is a learning program that helps you focus on the important points and speeds up the learning process while strengthening your ability to retain the new material . The use of modern learning technologies gives you a multi-channel approach to select from so that you can take advantage of your natural abilities and learning style. You can learn by viewing and controlling the animations and video clips, reading the complete 214 page textbook online or in the provided hard copy, listening to mini-lectures on each topic, or interacting with the exercises and quizzes; all while setting your own pace and flow of topics.
