This is to focus on getting our attention ready. Cognitive Theory of Language:Behaviorism vs Cognitive Theories: -Behaviorism: learning is dependent on external events (situational…new behaviors are learned)These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.-Cognitive: internal experience valued and considered more (learning may not show itself on the outsideCognitive Perspective- compares brain to computer; related to constructivism in that learners have to take an active role 2 Forms of Knowledge: -Domain-Specific- information that is useful in a particular situation or that applies to many situations-General- information that is useful in many different kinds of tasks, information that applies to many situations ***Learning requires bothSensory Memory: large capacity, but very short duration (2 seconds)-Haptic Memory= touch-Olfactory Memory= smell-Iconic Memory= image-Gustatory Memory= taste-Echoic Memory= soundPerception: process of detecting a stimulus and assigning meaning to it (interpretation of sensory info)-Gestalt- the whole is greater than the sum of its parts -Gestalt’s Principles- similarity, proximity, continuation, closure, figure-ground ---How we see patterns in the world around us ---To make complicated things more simpleAttention: focus on a stimulus-takes effort-guided by what we know/need to know-only 1 complicated task at a time-can eventually be automatic (like brushing your teeth)-necessarily limited (If we paid attention to every thing around us we’d go crazy)-1st step in learning-triggered by adaptive sensory (bright lights, strong smell, patterns, etc)***Encoding vs. Retrieval: distractions have a huge effect on encoding and hardly any effect on
