There are many connections that can be made from inside the lab and the real world. In my results from the four recall lists my overall percentage for correct recalled words was 60% and Critical Lure word recall was 75%. Critical lure words or the words expected or associated with the lists can be seen in the real world in slightly different ways. For example, forgetting where you placed your keys even if you normally always put them in the same place such as on a kitchen bench and you expect…

We have been so invested in technology in the past few years, that we have begun to let technology control the way we live our life. Whether it may be just using technology to find the closest coffee shop or flying on an airplane, thousands of feet above the ground, we have been letting technology take over our everyday life. Schools, once a place to learn using textbooks and paper, has turned into a technology based learning atmosphere. The question is, should we be relying on technology, or…

When The Dow Jones Industrial Average was created in 1896, Charles Dow had nothing more than a piece of paper and pencil to mark down all of his calculations. The calculation method that he devised involved an average of 12 different stock pricings then the average would be divided by that same number in order to reveal the industrial average result. This method which was made simple is now the national model for all industrial averages used within the nation’s stock market tallies. Another…

During the mid-1970’s, computers were extremely expensive, outrageously enormous, and most importantly lacked personal convenience. Unlike today’s society, people couldn’t walk around with a device small enough to fit in their pocket but capable of accessing their entire life with just a click of a button. However, one man by the name of Steve Jobs had a major contribution to the uprising of computer technology and its personal usage. He was unlike many others and because of his work, many…

I am applying to graduate school to explore how best to physically implement computation and how best to pass on what I learn to others. As physical devices get pushed to their limits, new design paradigms have begun to emerge across the spectrum of hardware architectures. This spectrum spans from prominent software-programmable devices, such as many-core CPUs and modern GPUs, to hardware-programmable technologies such as FPGAs. I am fascinated with the design challenges inherent in these and…

ever-changing. Technology has had a huge impact on American society, experienced by practically every US citizen, from its beginning to the present. - In the space age, scientists and researchers introduced the calculator, a device that forever changed computing and working with numbers (Fuller, R Buckminster, P. 339).
