Process:
1. How can we relate the
activity to the concepts of
collaboration and
communication?
A task becomes easier when
there is collaboration and
communication. Moreover, it
becomes easier when an
individual knows his role and
place in the group.
E. Discussing new concepts (15 mins)
and practicing new skills In what way can we

in the 21st century? (alternate
question: where can we find
communication and
collaboration in the 21st
century?)
The teacher now identifies the
nature and differences of three
important concepts in
collaboration:
Relationships are based on
some commonly accepted
values (e.g., respect, honesty,
equity, consideration,
commitment).
A network includes a group of
people who cooperate with each
other. This implies people
working closely together and
with some crossover or
connection in their purpose.

COLLABORATION and COMMUNICATION

The Human Brain and Neural Networks

Daniel Shiffman

The human brain can be described as a biological neural network—an interconnected web of neurons transmitting elaborate patterns of electrical signals. Dendrites receive
input signals and, based on those inputs, fire an output signal via an axon. Or something like that. How the human brain actually works is an elaborate and complex
mystery, one that we certainly are not going to attempt to tackle in rigorous detail in this chapter.

The good news is that developing engaging animated systems with code does not require scientific rigor or accuracy, as we’ve learned throughout this book. We can simply
be inspired by the idea of brain function.

A neural network is a “connectionist” computational system. The computational systems we write are procedural; a program starts at the first line of code, executes it, and
goes on to the next, following instructions in a linear fashion. A true neural network does not follow a linear path. Rather, information is processed collectively, in parallel
throughout a network of nodes (the nodes, in this case, being neurons).

Computer scientists have long been inspired by the human brain. In 1943, Warren S. McCulloch, a neuroscientist, and Walter Pitts, a logician, developed the first conceptual
model of an artificial neural network. In their paper, "A logical calculus of the ideas imminent in nervous activity,” they describe the concept of a neuron, a single cell living
in a network of cells that receives inputs, processes those inputs, and generates an output.

The most common application of neural networks in computing today is to perform one of these “easy-for-a-human, difficult-for-a-machine” tasks, often referred to as
pattern recognition. Applications range from optical character recognition (turning printed or handwritten scans into digital text) to facial recognition. We don’t have the
time or need to use some of these more elaborate artificial intelligence algorithms here, but if you are interested in researching neural networks, I’d recommend the books
Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach by Stuart J. Russell and Peter Norvig and AI for Game Developers by David M. Bourg and Glenn Seemann.
