Briefly explain how you study for this class.
Briefly explain how you study for this class.
What activities do you engage in to learn the material?
How much time per week do you devote to reading the assigned chapters?
How frequently do you review the week's material before moving on to the next week?
Is your pattern of studying for this class similar to or different from how you study for other classes? Explain.
You have read that the process known as long-term potentiation is a likely phenomenon underlying learning.
As you study material for this class, what is happening to the neural cells involved in processing the information? (In other words, explain the process of long-term potentiation.)
Based on the material in the chapter, what brain areas are involved in your initial processing of this information? (Keep in mind that this involves declarative memory.)
Once you have learned the material, you are required to retrieve it for a test, or to complete an assignment.
What brain areas are involved in this process?
Is the information likely to have been consolidated into long-term memory? Explain your answer.
Assume that one year from now, you are asked to give a talk at your job about what happens in the brain when we learn and remember information.
Assuming you can still recall the information, will it be stored in the same location that it is now? Explain.
Assume that you are unable to recall the information clearly. Why? What has happened to the memory?
Considering what you now know about the biological basis of learning and memory, how might you enhance your short- and long-term retention and retrieval of the information you are learning in this course?
