...the next level of the game. This is also one way to remember things through this application. It is about using pictures in order to retrieve memories connected to it and one process that makes use of pictures is called picture superiority effect. Most studies of the picture superiority effect have involved tests of memory for the occurrence of individual events, such as recall in which is the main objective of this study. If pictures however, receive complete semantic processing than words, this difference in processing could be an advantage for both memory of the individual pictures and for associations formed between pairs of random pictures. This research also intends to use the Anime and mobile game learning app in order to prevent forgetting what was present at young age.

...you wanted to get a friend’s attention, but he or she didn’t listen to you, right?” Again, the children said “YES!” She continued, “Today, we’re going to learn something we can do to help get our friend’s attention. First, look at what the bug does. He looks at his friend. Then, he taps his friend on the shoulder. And then he says his friend’s name, ‘Tommy.’ And look, his friend turns around!” As Mrs. Sandi described the sequence of pictures on the poster, the children followed along. Mrs. Sandi then re-creates this scenario for the children by acting it out with the help of Ms. Jackson, the classroom assistant. First, Mrs. Sandi demonstrated the right way to do the steps for the class. Then she demonstrated them again, purposely forgetting to tap Ms. Jackson on the shoulder. The children all pointed and shouted out what she had forgotten to do, and Mrs. Sandi corrects her mistake. Mrs. Sandi then invited two students to the front of the group to try the strategy with each other, cuing them as needed to ensure that they do all the steps. She went on to remind the children that the teachers would be watching them during center time to see if they are using the skill when they need to get their friend’s attention. After circle time, the children chose centers and went off to play. Mrs....

...Managing teacher education and in-service programs: Learning styles perspective Urban schools and minority students. It is possible that the quality of teaching is inadequate only in urban schools attended by poor children who are members of minority groups. In a family with three or more children, one will do well, another will perform adequately and another will be bored or frustrated on an almost daily basis. • Special education and need for in-service. Parents are led to believe that special education is a legitimate classification for students who are unable to learn. But if future teachers were being taught to identify and teach to their student’s learning styles during their initial training, the need for frequent retraining would be drastically diminished. • Lack of student discipline and/or motivation. It is often said that students are not as well disciplined or as highly motivated as students used to be. Motivation is not biologically imposed; it results from students’ experiences and interests. Teachers who are unable to motivate and teach their students need to learn how to do so. • Children taking prescription medications. Physicians may not understand that active and nonconforming children learn differently from the way passive, conforming children do. Parents allow their active children to be drugged because they are unaware that their children can learn; that traditional instructional approaches are not responsive to how their children learn. • Cultural...

...Attention, learning, and memory Attention and memory are human thought process essential to pursuit of learning. Attention is the act of selectively focusing on a certain stimuli to create imprints or memories in mind. Memory provides recollection of the stimuli previously learned. And, learning is a lifelong pursuit facilitated by attention and memory. Human brain with its complexity is wired differently in each individual. Therefore, each individual’s attention and memory is interlinked with that individual’s learning style. One of the ways individuals learn in the modern era is online learning. Online learning offers the opportunity to pursue an education and convenience of learning from the comfort of one’s home. In other words, online learning occurs in an asynchronous environment. Students who are enrolled in online institutions must create an environment for themselves, because despite the convenience online learning does not necessarily facilitate a traditional classroom learning environment. For example, in a traditional classroom, students are sitting in neat spaces with their attention pierced on the professors’ lectures and taking notes. The occurrence of any distractions is very limited. Student can make use of their potential learning style to retain the information. Whereas, online students may get disrupted by presence of divided attention, dichotic listening or cocktail party phenomenon, and learning still occurs, but learning styles may get adjusted.

(Cited by John Zeisel,1999) What psychologists can do to help Alzheimer patients ? Psychologists have a lot to offer in helping Alzheimer patients, not only in tackling the Alzheimer’s disease but also designing intervention programs that minimize the effects of Alzheimer. In some cases a psychological treatment may be a treatment of choice and the only treatment required. (cited by Dr Guy Proulx,2015) Some of the methods a psychologist can help: 1. Provide good education to help understand cognitive impairments and how they relate to changes in the patient’s behaviour and provide training to individuals to compensate for their cognitive...

...MEMORY Memory is one of the most important concepts in learning; if things are not remembered, no learning can take place. Futhermore, memory has served as a battleground for opposing theories and paradigms of learning (e.g., Adams, 1967; Ashcraft, 1989; Bartlett, 1932; Klatzky, 1980; Loftus & Loftus, 1976; Tulving & Donaldson, 1972). Some of the major issues include recall versus recognition, the nature of forgetting (i.e., interference versus decay), the structure of memory, and intentional versus incidental learning. According to the early behaviorist theories (e.g., Thorndike, Guthrie, Hull), remembering was a function of S-R pairings which acquired strength due to contiguity or reinforcement. Stimulus sampling theory explained many memory phenomenon on the basis of statistical outcomes. On the other hand, cognitive theories (e.g., Tolman) insisted that meaning (i.e., semantic factors) played an important role in remembering. In particular, Miller suggested that information was organized into "chunks" according to some commonality. The idea that memory is always an active reconstruction of existing knowledge was championed by Bruner and is found in the theories of Ausubel and Schank. Some theories of memory have concerned themselves with the nature of the processing. Paivio suggests a dual coding scheme for verbal and visual information. Craik & Lockhart proposed that information can be processed to different levels of understanding. Rumelhart & Norman describe three...

Second, the marketing concept stresses that a firm should create a marketing mix that meets customers’ needs. To find out what satisfies consumers, marketers must examine the main influences on what, where, when, and how they buy. Third, by gaining a deeper understanding of the factors that affect buying behavior, marketers are better positioned to predict how consumers will respond to marketing strategies consumer buying decision process- A five-stage purchase decision process that includes problem recognition, information search, evaluation of alternatives, purchase, and post-purchase evaluation Problem Recognition- occurs when a buyer becomes aware of a difference between a desired state and an actual condition.

Nowadays parents are preparing their children for various reality shows for example dancing, singing etc even if their children’s are not that much capable of competing but, the dream of watching their children becoming famous in their early age and also those taglines of the TV commercials of reality shows always keep pushing them to take an attempt to make their child prepare for competition. When I was studying all these records of present condition suddenly a thought crossed my mind that the way competitive reality shows are putting pressure on children it’s not right moreover, the children’s are not that much mature to bear any kind of shock.

...Fiction, Between Inner Life and Collective Memory. A Methodological Reflection. François-Xavier Lavenne, Virginie Renard, François Tollet1 Introduction In the writing of their fictional works, novelists often have to reflect on the functioning of memory, for memory lies at the heart both of inner life and of human experience in general. It is indeed in the works of writers such as Marcel Proust or Jorge Luis Borges that the best exemplifications of the subjective experience of memory are to be found. However, from a strictly mnemonic point of view, literature provides more than a means of reflecting on memory: it is also the site of the rebirth and construction of individual and collective memories, which can then serve as a foundation for the writing of fictional works. Creative writing has a meiotic function and is as such a powerful tool capable of rescuing memories from oblivion and bringing them back to life, thus reconciling the past with the present. The present article seeks to bring to bear new perspectives on the relationship between a novelist’s personal memories, collective memory, and the fictional narratives partially inspired by these two types of memory. In the first section we briefly examine the distinction traditionally made between individual memory and collective memory, which we then try to reconcile so as to arrive at an approach to the mnemonic phenomenon that best fits the needs of literary scholars. In the second section we challenge the conventional...

...known as introspection. Wilhelm Wundt, founder of the first psychology lab, was an advocate of this position and is often considered the founder of structuralism, despite the fact that it was his student, Edward B. Titchener who first coined the term to describe this school of thought. Functionalism formed as a reaction to the structuralism and was heavily influenced by the work of William James and the evolutionary theory of Charles Darwin. Functionalists sought to explain the mental processes in a more systematic and accurate manner. Rather than focusing on the elements of consciousness, functionalists focused on the purpose of consciousness and behavior. Functionalism also emphasized individual differences, which had a profound impact on education. While Wundt's work helped to establish psychology as a separate science and contributed methods to experimental psychology and Titchener development of structuralism...

...The Ageing Process “How Our Bodies and Minds Change” Aging is a process that concerns us all. The increasing armamentarium provided by molecular biology and other techniques has allowed greater understanding of some of the processes involved. Numerous definitions of aging exist; an acceptable and commonly used definition is that aging is the total of all changes an organism undergoes from its conception to its death, including development, maturation and adulthood. There are many theories about how our bodies and minds change as we age, but no matter how much research or theories have been formed, one thing remains true is that our bodies and minds does, and will, change with age and one thing can be agree upon is that the end results in all these studies is that the body and minds does go through many changes during our life time. Since the life span varies between and within species and human longevity is partially hereditary, it is clear that genetic factors, the biology of the brain, and our culture effect the function of the brain and influence the aging process ( Johnson 1993, Schacter et al. 1993, Vijg et al. 1995). Twin studies show that genetic differences account for about a quarter of the variance in adult human lifespan. While a great deal of research has focused on diseases of aging, there are only a few informative studies on the molecular biology of the aging brain. Many molecular changes are due in part to a reduction in the size of the brain, as well as loss...

...Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder The economic burden of ADHD 4/9/2010 DeVry University Angela Cawein Do you have trouble staying on task or completing projects you have started? Do you procrastinate to the point that things are not completed? Do you often lose or misplace items or have difficulty remembering appointments? Do you always run late to work or appointments and feel like you can never get caught up? Do you find that it is almost impossible to sit still? Do you get easily distracted by noises and forget what you were doing? Allen a first grade student at Triton Elementary School does not like school. He cannot sit in his seat for more than five minutes. He is always interrupting class with strange noises, getting out of his seat, throwing objects, sharpening his pencil and touching people around him. Allen has been noted by his teachers to blurt out answers to questions before they have been completed. He intrudes on other children’s activities, but seems to have adequate social skills. He has a history of not completing activities, being disorganized, easily distracted and has trouble paying attention to tasks or play activities. Allen has been motor-driven, defiant of rules, a poor sleeper, and inattentive to direction. He also has long been in trouble for disobeying authority. Allen and over four million children in the United States have been diagnosed with ADHD. The economic burden of ADHD to society, medical costs, employment and...
