[The following materials are to be sent to participants in advance of the webinar. They will serve as foundational documents that our webinar will build upon.    WATCH:   PBS Frontline "Inside the Teenage Brain" Available online at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/teenbrain/ While somewhat dated, this program provides a good primer on adolescent brain development in an easy-to-watch format.    READ:    "Beautiful Brains", National Geographic, published October 2011. Available online at http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2011/10/teenage-brains/dobbs-text  This article provides a more in-depth and current review of adolescent brain development from an evolutionary perspective-- adolescent brains are not "works in progress" but rather, beautifully adaptive for their stage of development.     "The Teen Years Explained: A Guide to Healthy Adolescent Development". Available online at http://www.jhsph.edu/sebin/s/e/Interactive%20Guide.pdf This guide provides a lot of information about adolescent development across several topic areas. For the purposes of this webinar, participants should read the "Brain Page" on page 16.]
