A. Reviewing previous lesson
or presenting the new
lesson
B. Establishing a purpose for
the lesson
How important is technology to
us today?
The teacher presents the
analogy of the bundled sticks by
asking the students about their
thoughts on the native American
proverb:
“A single twig breaks but a
bundle of twigs is strong.”
-Tecumesh, a Native American
Figure
1. What lessons can we
get from the proverb?
2. How can we relate the
proverb to our daily
life?
What are the differences
between connections,
relationships and networks?
Questions will be given to
the students and they are
going to answer by
themselves. They are going
to write their answers on a
paper.
The said activity is about
the set of social networks of
each students. It shows the
different networks that they
form.
Review of the previous topic:
1. What are the differences and
similarities of neural networks
and the human brain?
Activity:
Social Map
Create a Social Map that traces various
roles that the students play in the
community (social institutions) and rank
these roles according to the most
significant to the least.
Create a social map that students play in the community
(family members, community leader, etc. and ranks the
significance of roles played within the community.
Picture Analysis:
The teacher will show some pictures of social networks
and they are going to identify the name of the social
networks that will be shown.
1. Who among you have Facebook, twitter, skype
and other social networking accounts?
2. Do these social networking sites engage you in
a relationship?

C. Presenting
examples/instances of the What are activities in the 21st
new lesson century that require
communication and
collaboration?
The teacher emphasizes the
role of COLLABORATION and
COMMUNICATION as a
necessary skill to survive in the
21st Century World.
What did you notice from
the list of names that you
wrote?
Did it contain similar names
for every question? What is
your observations?
The teacher will discuss
about networks. Students
will be asked about their
own understanding of
networks.
Reading: The Human Brain as a Neural
Network by Daniel Shiffmann
The Human Brain:
The biological neural system is the most
robust learning system we know and it is
an analogy to NEURAL NETWORKS.
What are the main ideas of the given
reading?
Activity
Debate
1. Divide the class into two groups.
2. The class engages in a debate, presenting pros
and cons of Online Social Networking.
3. Teams prepare and present their arguments.
4. Other students will contribute remarks and
suggestions.
5. To determine which team provided the most
convincing arguments, a vote can be taken by
the class.
The teacher will ask:

1. How do you find the debate?

Based on the arguments given, how will you
define social networks?
D. Discussing new concepts
and practicing new skills
#1 Group Activity: Stand in Line
The class is grouped into four
with equal members for each
group. Each group will be asked
to form a line. The group are
asked to form a line according
to different categories (e.g. age,
height, alphabetical).
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 In what way can we collaborate
and practicing new skills and communicate in the 21st
#2 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
Example of a Digraph of a
Network will be shown.
Students will be asked
about their observations on
the diagram.
They will be also asked to
explain their understanding
on the said diagram.
Students will be asked
about their understanding
on social network analysis.
Social Network Analysis will
be discussed.
The importance of social
networks will be discussed
also. Students will give their
own ideas and opinion on
the importance of social
networks.

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.

Venn diagram

Human Brain Neural Networks

Both can be thought of as graphs (e.g., object linked together by relationships,) but that is about where the similarity ends.

In a social network, the nodes of the graph are typically people and edges represent connections between these people, such as (Bob) - Has Friend -> (Alice).
Graphs like these can have very general structure, such as edges going both ways between people: (Bob) - Follows -> (Alice) AND (Alice) - Follows -> (Bob).

Neural networks are really just big complicated mathematical functions, which can be seen as computation graphs. The nodes of a computation graph
represent mathematical operations like addition, multiplication, and the nonlinear tanh function. The edges in the graph represent which operations serve as
inputs to each other. As a very simple example, the function tanh(x * y + z) can be represented as a graph with 6 nodes and 5 edges, representing the order of
operations

(x) -> (*), (y) -> (*)

(x * y) -> (+), (z) -> (+)

(x*y + z) -> (tanh)

Its worth noting that these graphs have a less general structure than social networks: they are always directed and acyclic.

Only thing common between neural network and social network is that they both rely on graph theory. However, here are some of the differences useful to
understand.

1. Neural network is represented as a DAG (directed acyclic graphs), but Social network is generally not hierarchical (i.e. there are no starting nodes).
2. A node in neural network is a Math function while a node in a social network is a person, company or some entity.
3. A connection between two nodes in neural network are weights being passed between nodes (functions) but a connection between nodes in a social
network is a relationship between two entities (isamemberof, ismarriedto, isafriendof…etc).
4. Nodes in a social network may or may not have a layered definition, but a node in neural network almost always belongs to a layer containing
neurons of similar traits or functions.

Both are networks but one is of people (social) and other of neurons (code that imitates actual neurons).
