Where will I go? You have been asked to speak to Maryville freshman about Human Cognition and create and interest about the topic. In your final reflection paper, answer the following prompts: Prompt 1: How would you define human cognition? What does human cognition mean to you? Why is it important to study human cognition? Prompt 2: To further emphasize your thinking and create interest in the class, your next task is to briefly discuss three cognitive theories and provide examples related to your own life. Σ Assignment A+ Write a 3-5 page paper addressing both prompt 1 and prompt 2. Remember: in the scenario given, your audience does not know much about cognitive psychology. So, use simple terms/language in your explanations. Be clear, precise, and concise. ▼ Procedure: What to Do Scenario: You have been invited to give a short presentation to incoming Maryville freshmen about Human Cognition. Your task is to educate students about the topic and encourage them to enroll in the Human Cognition (PSYC 435) class. As you prepare for this presentation, remember all the different theories and concepts you learned over the past 8 weeks. Reflect on how these processes of the brain can impact our thoughts, actions, and behaviors in different contexts. • Did learning about different cognitive concepts help you to gain a better understanding about yourself? • Were there many concepts relatable to your own life? • How would you use the knowledge you gained from this class to shape your future journey? With these thoughts in mind, answer the following prompts. Prompt 1 How would you define human cognition? What does human cognition mean to you? Why is it important to study human cognition? 1. Provide a brief explanation of cognitive psychology. 2. Tell students why this field of study is important/interesting and discuss how the study of cognitive psychology will benefit them. 3. How will it help the students to gain a better understanding of themselves and others around them? Prompt 2 To further emphasize your thinking and create interest in the class, your next task is to briefly discuss three cognitive theories and provide examples related to your own life. You need to address three different theories from three different areas. Think about the 8 broad module topics discussed over the course of the semester. Pick three of these broad topics. Think about one theoretical concept from each of those three broad topics and a related example. Your final paper should include three theories and three examples - no double-dipping! 1. Describe the theory and related example. The application of the theory to the specific example is the key element. 2. Discuss how the theory applied to the situation you are describing, and the impact it had on you. 3. Demonstrate your understanding of the operational dynamics of human cognition through your analysis of the experience. How did applying these concepts to your daily life help you? 10 to >9 pts Completeness view longer description Full Marks Clear and complete.
