In recent years some educators have spoken of the need to align educational practice with "brain research." To a considerable degree, they speak of the first few years of life as being a sensitive period for brain development, in large part because synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, and myelination occur during this time. Respond to their line of reasoning by answering the following questions: a
What roles do synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, and myelination each play in brain development? b. To what extent are these processes exclusive to the first five years of life? c.
