I am genuinely surprised to hear that this didn't get a lot of love. It might be the single most useful hour I've invested in learning the IB Psych course. I'm sad that there is no Cog or SocCul equivalent. But am grateful for this.

Is this for the updated syllabus? I just didn’t find that the neural network and neural pruning were mentioned in neuroplasticity. I’m new to teaching the course and so a bit confused. TIa

Travis, this is excellent. Do you have such a thing for the Cognitive and Sociocultural approaches?

[@ThemanticEducation]

No, I don't sorry. This took hours to prep and didn't seem to be that useful for people when first uploaded so I didn't do the hours. I plan on making complete online courses for each approach, though. I'll post when they're ready (some time in 2022 hopefully).

Hiya, I've watched your essay tips for the essay style questions. I am just planning a response to the HL Question including the value of animal models and genes and behaviour. So far I have Weaver et al and Ferguson et al for my two studies. I am struggling to find a counter study to disprove this. Do you have any further studies which could be used as a counter argument?

[@ThemanticEducation]

hi, sorry, I'm not familiar with those two studies. But what you could write about instead is the limitations of animal studies. I tell my kids to write about culture and cognition - these are two factors that can change the relationship between biology and behaviour in humans, whereas they won't in animals. I'll make a video soon explaining this.
