...El efecto del tiempo de retraso en la memoria de corto plazo Evaluación Interna Nombre: Mariana Jaramillo Curso: Psicología: Nivel Superior Número de candidato: 001004-020 Colegio: Hiram Bingham Número de palabras: 1998 Índice: RESUMEN3 INTRODUCCIÓN4 METODOLOGÍA6 DISEÑO6 PARTICIPANTES7 MATERIALES7 PROCEDIMIENTOS7 RESULTADOS8 DISCUCIÓN10 BIBLIOGRAFÍA12 ANEXOS13 Resumen: El objetivo de este experimento fue replicar el estudio de Glanzer y Cunitz para observar el efecto del tiempo en el almacenamiento de información en la memoria de corto plazo. La hipótesis experimental fue que el tiempo de retraso afectaría la memoria de corto plazo. La variable independiente fue el tiempo de retraso, entendida como una tarea de distracción, mientras que la variable dependiente fue la memoria de corto plazo entendida como la cantidad de palabras finales de una lista recordadas. Se trabajó con muestras independientes. Se seleccionaron a 16 participantes por medio de un muestreo aleatorio. En el grupo control, se leyó una lista de palabras y se pidió que escribieran las que recordasen. Por otro lado, en el grupo experimental se leyeron las palabras, luego se realizó la tarea distractora y finalmente se pidió que escribieran las palabras recordadas. Utilizando el promedio y la desviación estándar, se vio que el grupo experimental recordó un menor número de palabras finales que el grupo control. Por medio de la prueba de U mann Whitney, se vio que los resultados obtenidos fueron significativos...

...de las comidas o como una medicina en anteaños. Ver la evolución del producto hasta ahora, es un gran cambio. Ya que antes de que los españoles invadieran América, se utilizaba en bebidas para celebración de las bodas. Después de la aparición de los españoles, comenzaron a valorar el cacao, no solo como una bebida fermentada, sino en chocolate. A partir de ahí se reconoce la existencia de este producto. Tan apreciado llegó a ser, que su costo era muy elevado. Hoy en día se utiliza para realizar cocoa en polvo y variedades de chocolates, que se utiliza en platos dulces y salados. Para comprender más del proceso de este producto, asistimos a una fábrica. Donde vemos la transformación de la materia prima, hasta las tabletas de chocolates que venden habitualmente en los supermercados, y que utilizan en los postres del día a día. De esta forma podemos llegar a identificar las reacciones químicas por las que pasa el cacao, y lo convierte en algo tan apreciado. Se visitó la fábrica de Tulicorp S.A, ubicada en la ciudad de Guayaquil. A primera vista parecía una fábrica grande, con toneladas de producciones masivas. Pero en realidad eran maquinas, que no eran de gran tamaño, debido a que ellos no realizan bombones, o galletería recubierta de chocolate. Si no se especializan en hacer tabletas de chocolate, con sabor natural. Sin aditivos, sin preservativos, colorantes, o saborizantes. Producen chocolate amargo, chocolate con leche y chocolate blanco. Dependiendo del cliente se realiza...

...Carla Hoffkins October 8, 2011 HCA 255 Kimberely Keith Louisiana has been plagued with a lot of problems. Our current governor, who is Bobby Jindal, lost the previous election to Kathleen Blanco. Kathleen Blanco was one of the state’s worst governors. She was governor when Hurricane Katrina hit the Louisiana coast. Jindal was able to win after Blanco’s disastrous term as governor. He also was able to cinch the election with the promise of an overhaul of the state’s health care system. Governor Jindal is trying to unite the health care system so that it is no longer a fragmented system. He believes that our health care system is fragmented; there is nothing to link any aspect of the health care system together. There are so many people that have no insurance, because they are falling through the cracks of the health care system. The uninsured either make too much money to qualify for the programs that they need and make too little to be able to afford any kind of health insurance coverage. My problem with Jindal’s proposal is that I believe it does not go into enough detail. When President Clinton was trying to pass his health care reform, there was a lot of information that we could research. While researching Governor Jindal’s position he only talked about three areas to change the whole policy. I went to about five websites and most of them said the same thing over and over. The state of Louisiana passed Jindal’s Health Care Reform Act in 2007. In November of 2008,...

...Dashes There are many uses of the en and em dash and also many ways to form these dashes using your computer. The following explanations offer the most common uses and methods for forming these dashes. En Dash An en dash, roughly the width of an n, is a little longer than a hyphen. It is used for periods of time when you might otherwise use to. Examples: The years 2001–2003 January–June An en dash is also used in place of a hyphen when combining open compounds. Examples: North Carolina–Virginia border a high school–college conference Most authorities recommend using no spaces before or after en or em dashes. To form an en dash with most PCs, type the first number or word, then hold down the ALT key while typing 0150 on the numerical pad on the right side of your keyboard. Then type the second number or word. An em-dash is typically used to act as a comma or parenthesis to separate out phrases—or even just a word—in a sentence for various reasons (i.e. an appositive). Examples where an em-dash should be used: School is based on the three R’s—reading, writing, and ’rithemtic. Against all odds, Pete—the unluckiest man alive—won the lottery. I sense something; a presence I've not felt since— An en-dash is used to connect values in a range or that are related. A good rule is to use it when you're expressing a "to" relationship. Examples where an en-dash should be used: in years 1939–1945 pages 31–32 may be relevant New York...

...price. Just as it is unfair to pay for a service that is being poorly rendered, so it is unfair for a business and its leaders to be compensated and viewed as achieving what really matters while they fail to meet the objectives of the owners. Second, when a business or organization adopts a mentality that what matters are not results, it often fails and hurts stakeholders. For example, in Hurricane Katrina, the American people saw a government that paid little attention to achieving results and succeeding in its job. As a result of a mindset that what mattered were not results, the government demonstrated considerable apathy and the victims of the hurricane suffered. As New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin and Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco said, the Federal government’s lack of focus on results mattered in a significantly negative way for the people of New Orleans and Louisiana. On the other hand, some may argue that a focus on results and success breeds corruption. These individuals may point to examples of corporate fraud such as Enron or WorldCom. However, a crucial benchmark of success that every...

...Racism and Hurricane Katrina Matt DePalma Geography 1000 Assignment 1 October 4, 2013 Under the presidency of George W. Bush, Hurricane Katrina was deemed as a national, political, and racial disaster. From preparations of the hurricane, rescue efforts provided, and money funded for the storm, Hurricane Katrina represented a nationwide failure and the casualties and emotional scars it left on the people of New Orleans is evidence. Monday, August 29, 2005 will forever live on as a day of infamy in New Orleans, a day where not only poor planning was obvious but racial inequalities also became even more apparent to the people. In the aftermath of its destruction, Katrina showed the world just how racist New Orleans was, and how corrupt and slowly the government acted towards saving lives. Unfortunately, New Orleans the the United States government left the black, poverty stricken population for dead, exposing a city still full of racism for had they not been, more lives could have been rescued. For starters, Ray Nagin, mayor of New Orleans during the storm had issued a mandatory evacuation of the city in preparation of the storm (Trouble the Water). This is a seemingly righteous and smart political move on Nagin’s part except that he also provided no transportation for those without cars or money. As a mayor, Nagin had to know that not every single person in his city could afford the luxury of travel for evacuation of Katrina. Nagin left 100,000 people, most of...

...wife and I once again received a handout from my son's elementary school concerning a non-American study project. This one concerns a week devoted to study of the Mexican Era. It asks for volunteers to help out with a culminating classroom "celebration of all things Mexican." Although my wife, Kim, and I often volunteer to assist with school functions for our children, we will NOT be volunteering for this one, or any other school function centered on non-American subject matter. Bottom line…we've had it with the onslaught of multi-cultural and diversity awareness programs being shoved down the throats of children in this school district. Before you label us racist, or right-wing religious fanatics, or homophobic, or whatever is currently en vogue to defend the Any Local School District agenda this week, I will ABSOLUTELY DENY YOU the opportunity. I defended democracy and freedom for fifteen years in the Air Force, flying hundreds of missions over hostile territory in combat conditions. I worked closely with people of every conceivable race or racial mix you can imagine. I trusted my life to them, and them to me. Not once did we put our tails on the line so my children would be deluged with Mexican, African, or "whatever-can" celebrations. We put our tails on the line for AMERICA! I am an AMERICAN of Dutch-German ancestry. Kim is a Korean citizen who happens to be a LEGAL IMMIGRANT to this country. Our family lives a "multi-cultural" life everyday. Do we see the Any Local School...

...An 8-year-old girl sat on her bed, as her mom called up to tell her ballet would start soon. A sense of excitement overcame her, as she started to think about her friends and becoming a real ballerina. She quickly slipped on her tan tights and stepped into her black, cotton leotard. Her mom slicked her hair back tight, as she squirmed to get away from her hold. When she looked in the mirror, her brown hair laid perfectly in a bun on top of her head and in her brown eyes she saw the next prima ballerina. Before they left for class, the little girl ran upstairs to grab her pink ballet shoes and gracefully slipped them on. She swiftly ran down the stairs and then jumped to her mother’s car. As the little girl entered the dance studio, the smell...

...Nervousness and excitement clutched me as I walked through the chipped white door of my small dance studio and moved onto the worn wooden floors. As I walked across the floor to the barre, I watched my reflection in the mirrors that stretched the length of an entire wall. I recalled that for weeks after my then best friend received her pointe shoes, I asked my instructor every lesson if I was ready as well. The answer was always, “Your ankles aren’t strong enough yet.” In the looking glass, I could see myself as I practiced walking on the balls of my feet to strengthen my ankles and dreamed of dancing gracefully on pointe shoes. I looked into my green eyes reflected back by the mirror and thought to myself resolutely, “Today I will finally receive my pointe shoes.” At the end of the lesson, with hope in my eyes, I approached my instructor and received devastating news. My ankles still weren’t strong enough. In that moment, all my perceived failures as a dancer flashed in the looking glass. I saw myself grimacing while in a half split because I couldn’t push myself level with the ground. I saw my fingers crooked and my arms bent at odd angles. I saw my forehead scrunched with concentration as I tried to perform a full pirouette. The images blurred as my misery overwhelmed me and tears stung my eyes. Yet, that day I forgot to also consider that dancing filled me with joy. Yes, I was only half decent at ballet, but I was eleven years old and had time to improve. My dancing career...

...the Thea Sisters (the five main character’s group name) was invited by Madame Ratlova (one of the most important Russian ballerinas in history)to come and participate in an international competition in the world of ballet, Madame Ratlova told that a new agency opened up a year ago in the ballet scene. Within a few months they had placed a big number of young unknown dancers under a contract. The agency is called “Mice for dance” their dancers have been winning all the competition this year even if they don’t deserve to, Madame Ratlova also explained that she has been hearing a lot of negative comments from her colleagues that they win even if their performance doesn’t even seem to pass the par. The agency is built by a number of famous choreographers and artistic directors that’s why rodents believe so much in them. Madame Ratlova invited the Thea sisters to Milan, Italy to be a ballerina by day and a spy by night. The five rodents arrived at the hotel they were staying in and began to make plenty of friends, when the Mice for dance entered the lobby they all went quite, all dancers were intimidated by them then the muscular dancer leading the group tripped on a stray gym bag then he started blabbering about how he could’ve lost his dreams and exclaimed that the bag’s owner could’ve destroyed the future star of ballet. Madame Ratlova paired Violet with Pytor (Madame Ratlova’s nephew) and Carlotta with Vasily (Madame Ratlova’s nephew) since Colette and the other members of the...

...INTRODUCCCION MOOC, acrónimo en inglés de Massive Open Online Course y traducido al castellano como Cursos en Línea Masivos y Abiertos; es una modalidad de educación abierta, la cual se observa en cursos de pre grado ofrecidos gratuitamente a través de plataformas educativas en Internet; cuya filosofía es la liberación del conocimiento para que este llegue a un público más amplio. El término MOOC fue acuñado en el año 2008 por Dave Cormier cuando el número de inscritos a su curso Connectivism and Connective Knowledge aumentó a casi dos mil trescientos estudiantes. David Wiley puede ser considerado el autor del primer MOOC conceptual, o proto-MOOC, iniciado en la Universidad Estatal de Utah en agosto de 2007. Se trataba de un curso de educación abierta. Esta iniciativa tuvo continuidad en numerosos proyectos impulsados desde diferentes centro universitarios dentro y fuera de los Estados Unidos. Un hito en la historia de MOOC viene ligado en el otoño de 2011 cuando más de 160.000 personas se matricularon en un curso de Inteligencia artificial ofrecido por Sebastian Thrun y Peter Norvig en la Universidad de Stanford a través de una compañía startup llamada Know Labs. Dado el éxito y el elevado número de matriculados, Daphne Koller y Andrew Ng crearon Coursera. Basada en una tecnología desarrollada en Stanford, Coursera se ha ido convirtiendo en una plataforma apoyada por numerosas universidades de prestigio (Yale, Princeton, Michigan, Penn). En la costa este por su parte, el...

...The Sport of Dancing Courtney Packwood ENG-106/Professor Zafonte March 17, 2013 Dancers should be considered athletes as well as artists. Dancers must use their bodies to express emotions, tell a story, commit to years of physical training, develop stamina, work as a team, take care of their bodies, stretch to prevent injuries, and enter into competitions against other dancers. They deserve to be helped at the athletic office. The dance education majors are not even allowed to ask for an ice pack from the athletic trainers. Members of the Grand Canyon University Dance Team are considered athletes, while the Dance Education majors are not. Both programs involve dance training but yet the school team is the only one of the two that reaps the benefits of being an athlete. The label of dancing being an art or sport has been questioned for decades now but no one has given it a definitive answer. When looking up the definition for athlete, several interpretations are given; overall, the main idea of an athlete being, “a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina” according to the Webster dictionary. When comparing this definition to dancers, it is clear that they meet each of those standards. So, why are dancers being denied help from the athletic training office when they demonstrate comparable abilities in physical training, competition, teamwork, and dedication; just as much as any of the athletic teams on...
