“Behold, my friends, the spring is come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love!”(Sitting Bull A-Z Quotes) Spring break is made out to be some spectacular time of the year. This is a time for high schoolers and college kids to flock to the beach in packs. Young adults pack up their coolers and red Solo cups in hopes for the best week of their lives. Most walk away from the less than toxic week with more questions than answers.…

most are familiar with, this tends to be the way teachers deliver information to the students of today’s society. The complication that arises with this type of delivery is that it lacks the potential to be stored in the long-term storage of the brain. For information to gain long-term storage in our brains, it must be information…

Deep in the roaming hills of Pennsylvania, miles from any old dusty road lays the most beautiful scenery imaginable hidden from any hiking or motor trail. a) The journey starts at a small quant trailer park on the side of a hill. b) In the gully below sandwiched between the hill of the park and the naked hill across lays a tiny stream which slowly grows for miles. c) The streams turns into a small creek with shallow water but lays deep in the earth as washed out hill sides ambush and retreat…

Long lasting forms of synaptic plasticity such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) have been shown to be fundamental cellular mechanisms underlying learning and memory. Induction of LTP occurs concomitantly with learning in the hippocampus of freely-moving animals and is known to prevent occludes subsequent electrical induction of LTP in the hippocampus (Whitlock et al., 2006). Conversely, saturation of hippocampal LTP is also known to interfere with spatial memory…

have concluded that short term memory is very limited and can only hold up to just a few seconds of information. In order to retain information for a longer period of time, many techniques such as repeating information, can possibly be converted into long term memory. The purpose of this study is to determine which gender can score higher on a short term memory assessment when placed under a time constraint. As for this experiment, an inspiration from George A. Miller will be used to conduct…

The University of California at Los Angeles, known as UCLA, is about to celebrate its centennial. UCLA is a coeducational, public, land grant institution of higher learning and was so designated by California to receive the benefits of the federal Morrill Acts of 1862 and 1890 to educate “citizens in the fields of Agriculture, Home Economics, the Mechanic Arts, and other useful professions” (UCLA History). Established in 1919, it began by “offering two-year undergraduate teachers-training…

Jim, Ben Gunn, and Long John Silver are all overcome with a desire to search for the treasure and each is let down and unsatisfied by the end of their adventure. When Ben Gunn arrives on the island three years before Jim, he suggests to his crew that him and the “[b]oys…land and find… Flint’s treasure” (Stevenson 152). After living on the island for so many years Ben is now almost crazy and has been living in a cave all alone. His initial desire to find the treasure ends up with his captain and…

The purpose of this article is to examine the differences in working memory capacity and long-term memory recall. Working memory capacity is defined as a system for temporarily storing and managing of the information required to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as learning, reasoning, and comprehension. Long-term memory is defined as memory that involves the storage and the recall of information over a long period of time (weeks or months). In this study participants were asked to perform…

and to connect with other people. Memory is an essential function of the brain for a person to live, learn, and interact with others. Working memory and long-term memory, how memories are formed and maintained, and memory problems are all a part of the brain’s everyday functions. Working memory is the very first part to storing memories long-term. Working memory is brief and immediate memory for the material that is currently being processed. Part of it allows for a few items to be active and…

the Long Knives? The Night of the Long Knives was significant because it marked a turning point in the Third Reich; as the first publicised official government purge, it signalled the types of activities for which they would later be primarily known. Its name was coined by Hitler, alluding to a popular German song about revenge, which captured the direction in which he wanted to push his particular version of events as part of Nazi propaganda. Hitler 's speech proved the Night of the Long…
