The Future of Intelligence: Mind Hackers - You're brain is basically a supercomputer that runs on fresh air and internet. Track storms and question experts before everyone else does.

Azhar tells us: Well this project is simply great. As children someday will have to research on the internet ..as if they weren't now..so in future they wont be having much difficulty and they surely be getting quick results in less time...

And children should be aware of all weather and should know how to overcome the harsh situations as well. This website will be helpful for the children who will be interested in science projects, and want some award or first prize :D

Barry's Response Yes, Azhar. I hope they will benefit from it. And our environment, too. Thanks for you input.

Ever since the world wide web came into practical existence in the 90's, kids have been using it in the classroom and other educational circumstances. It did take a while for teaching staff to learn the best and safest way to integrate this whole set of new tools into existing paradigms, but progress has been good.

Now they embrace the modern. Digital movie production, portable and mobile devices, podcasts, tablets, blogs, smart boards and all the associated media all hold a certain allure for all involved. It's all good, too.

It has sped up research, providing access to good (and bad stuff) for the kids to supplement their knowledge. Human adult guidance is now needed more than ever, and, fortunately, the providers know it. Current technology has enabled learning environments to customize to the needs of individual learners as well.

We should look forward to what these new generations become in the wake of the recent revolutions.

Weather and the Web Grow Your Brain

Mind Hackers, We're about to turn your brain into a supercharged weather station. Discover how hunting for storms online makes you smarter than everyone else.

Expanded Brain Storm by Enriching Children's Minds

Let's face it, the internet can be a huge distraction if you let it. If you use it right, it's like a Kaleidoscope for your brain. If you stop being a passive user and start acting like an inventor or air quality consultant, you'll enrich children's minds.

1. Atmospheric chemistry and brain fog Did you know the air in your classroom affects your brain? Your brain slows down if CO2 levels are too high because the windows stay shut. It's like running through a swamp.
   
   Sassy Truth: We're obsessed with climate change on the news, but we ignore the air right in front of us. Also, high CO2 lowers your test scores. Tracking air quality isn't just for scientists; anyone can benefit from it.
2. Weather as a teacher Azhar said kids should know how to handle harsh situations. He's right. You're not only memorizing clouds when you study a hurricane or a cold front. You're learning Fluid Dynamics, which is how energy moves.
   - Stewardship: We might talk about conservation and being good stewards of the land. Or maybe environmental justice. We can agree on one thing: we need to understand the world to protect it.
   - Some believe we're "stewards of the vineyard." If you don't know how vines grow (or how rain falls), you can't be a good steward.
3. Don't just trust the model, look at the counter-narrative The mainstream says the world's gonna end tomorrow. As an inventor, I say: Question the data. There's a margin of error in every computer model. Free thinking means looking at the weather station yourself.
   - Make a rain gauge.
   - Make a graph of the sunny days.
   - Compare your data with the big experts. Don't be afraid to speak up if your data differs! That's how science works.
4. Changing the way we teach Imagine a world where your desk is a 3D map of the local weather. To see if your house stays standing, you simulate the wind speed of a tornado. It's not enough to have kids who can Google the answer; we need kids who can see patterns others don't.

Here's how to really enrich your mind

Azhar sees the same thing as I: the tools have changed, but the mission hasn't. To enrich children's minds, we have to balance digital allure with nature's raw power.
- Find data on the web,
- Find out what's true by looking at the sky,
- Keep your air clear by protecting it.

Rather than a dusty book in a museum, it's a living, breathing debate. When you track a goldfish in a freezer or a hurricane on a tablet, you're training your mind to see the shapes of the universe - the path that bends around obstacles.

Here's what I hope you got from this:

• Learn how curiosity drives brain growth.
• Understands the connection between air quality and thinking.
• Kids can challenge consensus with their own data.
• Link internet research to real-world survival.

How do you feel about it?

Do we lose our nature-smarts because of the internet? Is it a good idea for every school to have its own weather station? Let's see who has the most enriched mind!
