The homunculus is the subject of Part 6 of the 13-part course on psychology. Like previous videos, this one examines the systems that transmit various stimulous to the brain. The narrator's lecture is filled with terms, concepts, and animations that illustrate how sights, sounds, tastes, and smells are sent to the brain where they are interpreted. The video may be used to provide learners with an overview of the systems.
