    CONCLUSION: Two weeks ago, Soundings XVI performed Lab Experiment Number Two. Lab Experiment Number Two was similar to the previous, Lab Experiment Number One. The prompt was to compare the results of pennies dropped in water, versus the result of pennies being dropped into milk, both at 100 mL. The main purpose of this lab was to further discuss more scientific parts of this lab, such as the surface tension when the cylinder was close to overflowing for both the milk and water. Before performing this lab, my group and I created a hypothesis to reflect upon and to state what we believed would dictate the results.…

    The DE2-115 peripherals lab results were quite interesting, both numerically and visually. In part one of the lab, the results pertained to the largest number a bus could hold. For example, it was calculated that a bus of [17:0] could hold any number up to the limit of 262143 using the equation (1). Also, when the value of X in Figure 5 was changed a certain number of lights would begin to blink on the LEDs above the switches. As the value of X increased the number of the switch that would correspond to the LED that was blinking decreased, as it can be seen in Table 1.…

    The stimulus activity that I chose to do was making valentine sugar cookies with two of my nieces. I originally was only going to do this with my seven year old niece Eliza, but decided to let her younger sister, Lucy who is five, also join us. Overall, the stimulus activity of making and frosting sugar cookies went great. I didn’t think they would be as open as they had been because they are both really shy and usually only talk to the other kids. However, they were both engaged and enjoyed it because they had been able to frost cookies before but had never had the opportunity to help mix the batter, cut them out, and bake them before.…

    Because the experiment takes place in a laboratory, Baumrind argues that participants will not act how they might in the real world. She states that the laboratory is an unaccustomed setting for a typical being and may cause anxiety and passivity (225). Correspondingly, Saul Mcleod, a psychologist who summarizes and critiques Milgram’s experiment, states that the “important” location of the experiment, obedience levels increased (Simply Psychology). The point about setting is one in which Baumrind and Parker are able to reach a consensus.…

He proposed that it consisted of 3 subsections, a central executive, a phonological loop and a visuo-spatial sketchpad, these subsystems are then further fractionated. Logie (1995) proposed that the visuo-spatial sketchpad is divided into two components; a visual cache and an inner scribe. The inner scribe contains information on movement and spatial awareness.
