Learning

This weeks blog is about learning. One of the things that stood out to me was acquisition. Acquisition, according to the book is the point of learning process at which the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus because it causes the conditioned response. An example of this is a dog. Two stimuli is a bell and food. When the dog hears the bell he or she knows that they are about to receive food.


RESEARCH OF LEARNING
When reading about learning this week I decided to look up what learning is. Learning isn't something that happens when you are only at school but learning is happening all the time and varies depending on the environment and what you are doing at this time.


REAL WORLD APPLICATION 
Through this I have learned that I can study two little things in a topic at a time and then put these things together to be able to know them. I believe that I will be able to obtain more knowledge at the same time and understand topics a lot better. This assignment will help me in the future.

    Hi Hayden, I really like how you added in that learning isn't something that you just receive while sitting behind a desk in school, It has to do with your environment and what or who you're surrounded with. I really enjoyed reading this blog!

    Whats up Hayden, I truly did agree with you on this assignment. I also learned that you don't have to be sitting behind a desk to be learning. But that you can have different environments in which you can be learning. I enjoyed reading this blog.

      I found the dog experiment really interesting too. I liked that you addressed what learning was. It is crazy how much we really do learn everyday. Also I liked that you said you could learn in any environment. This was a good read.

Final post

Ending my first year as a college student was interesting. But even with that said I learned a lot about psychology. From this semester I learned how the brain works and psychological disorders. Our first lesson was over brain and behavior. In a Ted talk a scientist talked about how the brain works. I found it interesting that a neuroscientist helped design a exoskeleton suit that helped a paralyzed man kick the first ball at the 2014 World Cup. I also learned about sensation. This involved our 5 senses that we use to be aware of our surroundings and adapt to what is happening. In week 5 we learned about a development of a child. The biggest thing that stuck out to me was the nature vs nurture debate. After that lesson we learned about memory and learning. The studying of memory has blown scientist minds away when they study and look at the brain. Scientist have studied how we receive information and translate that into our memory bank. In module 5 we learned about motivations and em...

Gratitude Visit

I wrote a letter to my youth ministers that are leaving the church that I grew up at and taught me all the years I was in the youth group. Here is the letter. Dear John and Crysty,      There are not enough thank you's I could say to the both of y'all for how much y'all did for me and the others in the youth group as I grew up. I still remember my first Sunday class I ever had in the youth group. John made me stand up and say my name and who was my favorite super hero and of course I was going to say Batman because I knew who was asking me the question. Some of my favorite memories growing up were from youth group events. From Pine Springs, The Houston Mission trip, or even Guatemala. I am still so thankful that I got to experience Guatemala and it wouldn't have been without John and my Dad basically forcing me to go. I learned so many lessons from that trip that I still think about as I write this letter to y'all.      I want to say thank you ...
