Knowledge Acquisition and Memory Development

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, please read When Forced Fabrications Become Truth: Causal Explanations and False Memory Development, view How Your “Working Memory” Makes Sense of the World, Elizabeth Loftus: How Reliable Is Your Memory?

For this paper, you will be explaining some of the cognitive-based ideologies related to how memory development works, how it is affected by outside variables, and how strategies can improve one’s own information processing.

  • Explain, precisely, the mental process of knowledge or memory development.
  • Include the importance of successfully moving information from working (short-term) memory to long-term memory (effective information processing)?
  • Discuss the factors of attention and perception in association with successfully moving information from sensory to working memory to long-term memory.
  • Discuss the predominant variables that can affect effective processing for each of the following types of memories: semantic memories, episodic memories, and autobiographical memories.
    • (Hint—emotions, outside distractions, etc.)
  • Discuss the prevalence of false memories, and how this phenomenon may affect how we learn effectively, as well as help others to learn accurately.
  • Conclude with a summarization of your paper’s content (conclusion paragraph).

Tittle: Characteristics, Challenges, and Opportunities of Evidence-Based Design Choose Topic: Psychology

Tittle: Characteristics, Challenges, and Opportunities of Evidence-Based Design
Choose Topic: Psychology

Select number of pages: 2

Question Description: Consider the following quotation: “Often times, potential users of research knowledge are unconnected to those who do the research, and consequently a huge gap ensues between research knowledge and practice behaviors” (Barwick, M., Boudell, K., Stasiulis, E., Ferguson, H., Blase, K., & Fixsen, D., 2005). Social workers must work to close the gap perceived by the authors of this quote.

In your previous research course, you addressed the concept of evidence-based practice. However, it is important not to fall into a habit of using the term “evidence-based practice” without a clear understanding of its meaning. In particular, it is important to understand what standards of evidence must exist to classify an intervention or a program as evidence based. In this assignment, you are to clarify your understanding of the nature of evidence-based practice and analyze the challenges and opportunities for implementing evidence-based practice in your current social work practice.

To prepare for this Discussion, read the Learning Resources that provide information about different aspects of the evidence-based practice concept. As you read, consider how evidence-based practice or evidence- based programs might be used in a social work agency where you work or where you had a practicum experience.

By Day 3
Post a description of the distinguishing characteristics of evidenced-based practice. Then provide an evaluation of factors that might support or impede your efforts in adopting evidence-based practice or evidence-based programs.

Development of Numerical Operations

Development of Numerical Operations

When early number and operation concepts are taught well, children move from understanding “10” as ten ones to understanding “10” as one unit of ten. This knowledge can be applied in many mathematical operations, including addition and subtraction.

Select at least three number and operations in base ten standards for the grade level of your field experience classroom. Design three learning centers for a small group of students that will be run by volunteers. In developing your learning centers, consider students’ personal, family, community experiences, and cultural norms, and how those can be integrated into the math centers. Create one learning center that promotes active inquiry, one that includes problem solving, and one that incorporates technology .

For each learning center, write a 150-250 word handout for the volunteer who will be facilitating each center’s activity.

Include the following in each handout:

  • Purpose and learning objective aligned to the state standard
  • List of materials/manipulatives to be used and the purpose of each (including technology resources)
  • List of age-appropriate content-related vocabulary to be taught and used throughout the activity
  • Directions for how to run the activity
  • How the activity can be differentiated for students above and below grade level

In a 250-500 word rationale, discuss how your centers are designed to:

Support your rationale with 1-2 scholarly resources.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Requirements: 500-750 words.
