Maturity of the Brain
Brain by design
The brain is more than just a tool that helps you think. It also helps you mature but humans have different brains. Since all brains are different they mature at different rates people think that laws should be changed for teens for example a new driving age. I say that every one is different not just in brain activity but as a whole. So you have people that are wanting to change laws but the problem might not be just the brain and how it matures at different rates one factor that also might share part of the blame is how people learn at different rates.
learning styles
visual learning
Visual learning is the type a learning where people have to see something demonstrated before they start to work on it them selves. Like a science lab that the kids might do in class.
Auditory
Which means that they have to hear it instead of seeing something done they have to have it spoken out loud so that they can hear it a process it in there brains.
Hands on learning style
When you here someone say that in order to do something they need it hands on which means that they have to read the directions to them self and then try to work by themselves or with a group to get that hands on experience.
Maturity Rates
Different brain regions and systems mature along at different timetables. So there is no single age at which the adolescent brain becomes an adult brain.
