...Memory Without it, you’d be constantly living in one moment to the next. You wouldn’t know who you are, where you came from or where you are going. But what is it? And how does it work? To answer these questions, early memory researchers decided to break memory down into simple structures. The mysterious power of our mind to store images, words and sounds, was reduced into several components. All of these components were then thought to interact through simple processes. Simplifying memory in this way was a necessary step in developing our understanding of how memory functions. From this structured view of memory, two important models of memory were developed: the Multi-store Model and the Working-Memory Model. Section 1: Multi-store model of memory Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968) Do you think you have a good memory? What is your earliest memory? The multi-store model is a structural model which states that memory is made up of 3 distinct, separate stores: sensory memory, short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM). Each of the stores can be analysed based on three factors: 1) Capacity: how much information can be stored 2) Duration: the amount of time the information can be stored 3) Encoding: how the information is represented by the memory system Sensory memory The first store in the multi-store model is the sensory memory store. This store provides an account of the environment as experienced by our senses. A copy of the stimulus is kept here until we determine...

...FraudAnalytic, Nonfinancial, and Red Flags | For Dr. Pacini ACG 6686: Accounting Fraud Examination Concepts -Spring 2013 – Mavis Curley Florida Atlantic University April 25, 2013 | I. INTRODUCTION The use of analytical procedures on financial data to asses risk and detect fraud is standard practice for auditors; however, using only financial data has been shown to be ineffective in uncovering many frauds. (3-Brazel) Auditors and forensic accountants find that when nonfinancial performance measures and financial data are compared inconsistencies can be exposed, and fraud risk revealed, that otherwise would have gone undetected. (3-Brazel) There are a number of nonfinancial performance measures which can raise questions about financial reporting and the corporations environment; although they are not directly related to the accounting of the business they function as possible indicators or symptoms of fraud; this can help detect wrong doing sooner than analytical procedures alone. This paper will describe common nonfinancial performance measures and through the use of a fictional corporation, show how nonfinancial performance measures and can expose fraud and fraud risk and discuss the use of red-flags and the future of nonfinancial measures in auditing, investing and investigations. II. NON FINANCIAL MEASURES AND CORPORATION X The American Association of Accountants (AAA) published a commentary paper on the NFM research done by Brazel et al, below...

...This is the third time that I have started this paper now. I know it is supposed to be about me, but the truth is I am not all that interesting. I am just a woman, working hard to be someone that my late parents, my son, my husband and family can be proud of. I am a twenty five year old woman who has four very full-time jobs at this moment in my life. A mother to my eight year old son, a wife, an Elementary Education major, and a high-volume restaurant manager (when my time is not being occupied by the most important things in my life). If you have not already done the math in your head, like most people do when I tell them how old my son and I are; I was sixteen years old when I gave birth to him. I was never the girl that anyone expected that from, I did not even expect it would happen to me. I was always a model student and the perfect little girl. But it happened. I was determined to make sure that my son and I did not become “just another statistic.” I gave up most of my hobbies and put my dreams on hold as I focused on finishing high school and providing for my son. My parents were a huge help as I began my journey into single motherhood. They were my biggest motivators and supporters; they just wanted me to get at least my high school diploma. I did. I graduated six months early, actually. I was the first person in my family since my paternal grandmother to actually finish with a diploma and not a GED. When I was younger, before I had my son, I loved to...

...Mr. Macomber English 3 AP Syllabus 1.5 English 3 AP Course Overview Students in this introductory college-level course read and carefully analyze a broad and challenging range of nonfiction prose selections, deepening their awareness of rhetoric and how language works. Through close reading and frequent writing, students develop their ability to work with language and texts in order to establish greater awareness of purpose and strategy, while strengthening their own composing abilities. C16 Students examine rhetoric in essays, images, movies, novels, and speeches. They frequently confer about their writing by conferencing in class. C 14 Feedback is given both before and after students revise their work to help them develop logical organization, enhanced by specific techniques to increase coherence. Rhetorical structures, graphic organizers, and work on repetition, transitions, and emphasis are addressed. I comment on individual drafts, and I write memos to the class in a blog about whole-class concerns such as specificity of quotations, parallelism, and transitions. C13 Simultaneously, students review the simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentence classifications. We examine word order, length, and surprising constructions. Loose and periodic sentences are introduced. We examine sample sentences and discuss how change affects tone, purpose, and credibility of the author/speaker. In addition, feedback on producing sentence structure variety...

...Coping with Learning Disabilities Stephen Odom College 100 American Military University Maureen Augustin Coping with Learning Disabilities Many people around the world suffer from some type of Learning Disability (LD). Learning disabilities affect the way people receive, process, analyze, and store information. Many types of learning disabilities have been identified over the years. They can affect many different facets of a person's life, such as concentration, focus, reading, math, or writing. Many people that are diagnosed with a learning disability have more than one. LD has always been difficult to define as a disorder, but is typically seen as “unexpected” underachievement (Swanson, Harris, and Graham 2003). There are many tools and techniques that have been developed to help these people cope with their disability. Many disabilities are diagnosed early in life when a child is noticed to have difficulty communicating effectively, speaking, reading, writing, solving a math problem, or any other task that should be performed at their appropriate age level. There are many different types of learning disabilities that have been identified. Some of the more common ones are dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia. Although they are not classified as learning disabilities, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism also present learning difficulties. Dyslexia is the most common, and most well known, learning disability. According to Montgomery (2007), “The term...

...wrong. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter? Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again. Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft. There is a great need for sarcasm font. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the hell was going on when I first saw it.

Paragraph one is the introduction to the paper. It should begin with something that will grab the reader’s attention and provide a citation to support your opening sentence (Norwood, 2002). Next, support that opening sentence with discussion or explanation with one or multiple sentences which will make up the body of the introductory paragraph.
