In learning about memory in this writing assignment, what is the one thing (or more) you have taken away from this assignment that you did not know before studying the information?
1) Please give me two examples of each, that you can relate to, about implicit and explicit memories. Experiences of your own.
2) Please write one page or more of at least two concepts that you found the most interesting in the Times article, and don’t forget to tell me why each were so interesting to you. Please do not tell me about the article because I have read it many times. I know all about it. I want to know and understand what you learned, and what fascinated you about it or what brought an “ah-hah moment” (if anything). Please do not include the story about Lonnni Sue because I will ask you to write about it later!
3) Please write one page on which two memory tests you took. The name of the tests and your results as well as what you thought of your results? (i.e., did you think you would do better/worse or was it more difficult than you imagined even though you are not in secondary school)?
4) In learning about memory in this writing assignment, what is the one thing (or more) you have taken away from this assignment that you did not know before studying the information?
5) Please write what you learned about Lonnie Sue from the video/article(s). Again, don’t tell me about the article but only what you learned. This story has a lot of information in it so please “dig deep” and think critically. I am expecting a scholarly answer that is inclusive of what the previous questions have discussed. “Dig deep”!
