Students will learn why it is important to advocate for themselves. They will learn different strategies and approaches of how to request for specific things, communicate their feelings, and respond to certain situations. They will apply what they learned to real-world scenarios. They will leave the workshop with a better understanding of their self-worthiness and how to be clear with others to advocate for themselves.

Event

The aim of this presentation is to help us understand how the two pathways in the brain, the dorsal and ventral streams, can be disordered by injury or dysfunction and the nature of the outcomes.
First a case in which the occipital lobes and ventral stream have been lost will be described. This will show how the dorsal stream works.


Next, cases in which the dorsal stream is disordered but the ventral stream is intact will be shown to illustrate the origin and nature of the resulting experience.

Event
