My exquisite padlet by Daniel Centracchio https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr en-us 2024-05-06 18:45:40 UTC 2024-05-06 21:08:46 UTC hello@padlet.com Section 1: Memory Lane dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982102183 The 3 processes of memory are Encoding, Storage, and Retrieval. Encoding is the initial learning of information, storage is maintaining information over time, and retrieval is the ability to access information when you need it.

Sensory Memory - Initial process that receives and holds environmental info for several seconds, iconic = visual, echoic = hear

Short Term Memory - Your working memory, holds info for 2 - 30 seconds, +/- 7 items - zip codes, passwords, phone numbers, retain info BRIEFLY

Long Term Memory - Process of storing almost unlimited amounts of info over long periods of time

Also I remember eating Jimmy John’s that night for dinner.]]> 2024-05-06 19:02:34 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982103572 Section 1: Memory Lane dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104158 Long Term Memory - Another long term memory I have is playing golf with my brother, dad, and grandpa. It was a hot and sunny day last June when we played. It was a great time and I almost beat my dad.]]> 2024-05-06 19:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104158 Section 2: Memory Tricks dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104667 Memory Tricks - One memory trick is serial position effect which is the tendency to recall info that is presented first and last better than the info presented in the middle. You can use this to put important info in the start and end of a speech so that poeple will remember that stuff better.]]> 2024-05-06 19:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104667 Section 2: Memory Tricks dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104928 Memory Tricks - Another memory trick you can use is Chunking which is the organization of items into familiar or manageable units or chucks, like remembering phone numbers by the first 3 numbers, then the next 3, and then the last 4 numbers]]> 2024-05-06 19:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982104928 Section 3: Problem Solving Strategies dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105311 Problem Solving Strategies- One problem solving strategy is Algorithms which are a fixed set of rules or procedures that will guarantee a solution. People who can solve Rubik’s Cube use algorithms to solve them. This works all the time if you can remember the algorithm and know how to use it.]]> 2024-05-06 19:04:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105311 Section 3: Problem Solving Strategies dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105363 Problem Solving Strategies - Another problem solving strategy is Heuristic which is problem solving shortcuts that reduce the number of steps to solving a problem. This is things like working backwards from a problem to find a solution like when you forget where you place your keys and retrace your steps to find them. This usually works pretty well if you can remember what you were doing before you lost your keys.]]> 2024-05-06 19:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105363 Section 3: Problem Solving Strategies dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105429 Problem Solving Obstacles - Faulty Heuristics is when you introduce errors and bias into memories that alter them. This is like when you think someone does certain hobby’s because of their jobs when really they might have nothing to do with that.]]> 2024-05-06 19:04:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105429 Section 3: Problem Solving Strategies dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105486 Problem Solving Obstacles - Another problem solving obstacle is Mental Set, this is the tendency to only to see solutions that have worked in the past. This is bad because there might be other ways to solve something that are better than what you know. An example is when you always reboot your computer when it freezes instead of waiting an extra second to see if it un freezes.]]> 2024-05-06 19:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105486 Section 4: Memory Masterclass dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105867 2 US based psychologists are coming out with a book about how a degree of forgetting is natural to allow the brain to remember more general information. Memory does not work like a recording device, they say, but 'more like a Wiki page' because details can be edited. They call for greater understanding of how memory really works, as it can have real life impact. For example, they suggest potential jurors should be taught how memory works, as victims of crime may not be believed in court because their memories are patchy even though this is perfectly normal.]]> 2024-05-06 19:04:46 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982105867 Section 4: Memory Masterclass dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982106138 Neuroscientists from Northwestern University teamed up with clinicians from the University of Chicago Epilepsy Center to study the brain electrical activity of patients in response to sounds administered by the research team as part of a learning exercise. While prior studies have used EEG recordings captured by electrodes on the head to measure memory processing during sleep, this is the first study to record such electrical activity from inside the brain. The study found participants significantly improved their performance in a recall test the next morning. The mapped brain activity allowed the researchers to take a big step forward in understanding how memory storage works by providing visual data identifying the areas of the brain engaged in the process of overnight memory storage.]]> 2024-05-06 19:05:00 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982106138 Section 5: Conclusion dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982107117 Memory, thinking, and problem-solving are fundamental cognitive abilities that play a crucial role in our daily lives. Memory allows us to store and retrieve information, enabling us to learn from past experiences and make informed decisions in the present. Thinking involves the process of analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing information, helping us to interpret the world around us and formulate plans of action. Problem-solving is essential for overcoming challenges and achieving goals, as it involves identifying obstacles, generating potential solutions, and selecting the most effective course of action. Understanding human behavior relies heavily on these cognitive processes. Memory shapes our perceptions and beliefs, influencing how we interpret events and interact with others. Thinking guides our decision-making and problem-solving abilities, impacting our behaviors and reactions in various situations. By studying how we remember, think, and solve problems, we can gain insights into human cognition and behavior, helping to explain why people act the way they do and providing strategies for promoting positive change and adaptation.]]> 2024-05-06 19:05:58 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982107117 Section 1: Memory Lane dcentracchio4074 https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982125878 Short Term Memory - A short term memory I have is remembering that you can keep around 7 things in your short term memory because I just wrote that down.]]> 2024-05-06 19:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/dcentracchio4074/v14c4enb6dvzuwjr/wish/2982125878
