UNIT THREE ASSIGNMENTS
Part I - The most commonly known and labeled senses are sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Considering this, please address the following
a) Do you think that there may be senses which do not necessarily receive information only from the environment, but rather from within us as well? (For example, how do you sense that you are hungry? If you hold your breath, which sense ‘senses’ that you need air? How do you sense the need for belonging?)
Yes, I do believe that there are other senses that are not recived by the commonly known five senses. For instance the ability to detect emotions even at spatial distant. This would make sense for me as I seldom sense emotion …show more content…
Indeed, the definitions that we have for senses are limited to the sense organ. We need have a definition for senses that is not limited to sense organ because we have been witnessing to sense something but not necessarily through the known sense organ.
Part II - What is the role of operant conditioning in our development of reading skills? How do these skills become stronger and more “automatic”? Do you think that many of our “skills” follow the same path of development, and why? 1) Discuss your experience in completing the exercise. How do you think learning, intelligence, language, and memory are connected to any ease or difficulty you may have experienced while doing the exercise?
While I was doing the exercise, I found out that learning intelligence, language, and memory are connected in the process of acquiring knowledge. I have noted that knowledge is building of experience in which memory has significant role to build an ease relationship between intelligence and language.
2) How is doing this exercise related to Parts I and II
