  1. 1. Explain the usefulness information processing model.

    The model discussed here limits its scope to the major cerebral operations that deal with the collecting, evaluating, storing and retreiving of information. Knowing how the human brain seems to process information and learn can help teachers plan lessons that students are more likely to understand and remember.

    2. What is working memory?

    working memory is one of temporary memory and the place where concious, rather than subconscious, processing occurs.It can handle only a few items at once.

    3. Explain difference between sense and meaning.

    Sense is related to understanding the item on the basis of experience and meaning is refers to the item is relevant to the leaner.

    * Compare the long-term memory and long -term storage.

    Long term memory refers to the process of storing and retrieving information. It is a dynamic, interactive system that activates storage areas distributed across the brain to retrieve and reconstruct memories.
    Long term storage refers to th areas in the brain where the memories are kept.

  2. This chapter presents a modern dymanic model of how the brain deals with information from the senses. It uses common objects to represent various stages in the process. Understanding of celebral operations that deal with the collecting, evaluating, storing and retriving of information is useful to teachers. Our brain takes more information from our environment than computer. All sensory stimuli enter the brain and sensory register filters incoming information to determine how important it is like the blinds.
    There are two memories in short-term memory. One is immediate memory and the other is workin memory. Immediate memory can be represented as a clipboard, a place where we put information briefly until we make a decision on how to dispose of it. The working memory handles only a few items at once.
    There is a hierarchy of response to sensory input. Data affecting survival and data generating emotions are processed ahead of data for new learning, which in school is called curriculum. So teachers are requied to promote emotional security in the classroom by establishing a positive climate that encourages students to take appropriate risks. Information that has survival value is quickly stored. However, In the classroom, informaton is most likely to get stored if it makes sense and has meaning.
    If the students can accurately recall the learning after a specific period of time has passed, we can say that learning has been retained as a long term memory.
    The cognitive belief system is our view of the world around us and how it works and deep within this lies self-concept. Self-concept is shaped by our past experiences.
    The addition of new positive and negative experiences moderate the self-concept and alter how we see ourselves in our world. Sensory rigister and temporary memory system use past experience as the guide for determining the importance of incoming stimuli to the individual. So students will participate in learing activities that have yeilded success for them and avoid those that have procuced failure. So the better intervention is to deal with the learmer's emotions and convince the learner to allow the perceprual register to open the blinds and pass the information along.
    When teachers provide learning situation that will produce new success, students will be encouraged to open the sensory register and to participate and achieve in the once avoided learning process.

  3. 1. Explain the usefulness of the model.
    Knowing how brain works when they get the information from the environment or stored it into long-term memory, it helps teacher plan lessons that students are more likely to understand and remember.
    2. What’s working memory? Working memory can be described as a work table in which something important are dealing. So if something is in our working memory, we focus on that. There is 3 parts are cooperating working memory. Central control mechanism, visuospatial sketchpad and Phonological loop. These 3 parts are doing different job to make information interact with long-term memory so that it can be stored for a long time.
    3. Explain difference between sense and meaning
    When students get information, they examine that determining whether it’s saved or rejected. And in that process, sense and meaning of an item are playing major roles. Sense of item is based on student’s view of world which means, students think of the fitness of the item in their view of world. On the other hand, meaning or item means, students think of how this information is relevant to them.
    Discussion Question
    Q. Compare the long-term memory and long-term storage.
    Long term memory refers to the process of storing, while long-term storage refers to the places in the brain where the memories are kept.

  4. I am highlighter this week,. I hope these terms are helpful for your understanding.

    1. Neuroscientist: Neuroscientist is an individual who studies the scientific field of neuroscience or any of its related sub-fields. In here, they are working on brain research.
    2. The information processing model: It’s the model to explain brain behavior. When model gets information from our environment and the senses reject or accept it for further processing which goes to two different memories. The senses passes through the sensory register to immediate memory and then on to working memory for conscious processing. If the learner attaches sense and meaning to the learning it’s likely to be stored.
    3. Stimulus: A stimulus is something that encourages activity in people or things. In a book, stimulus encourages senses to detect or recognize, record them.
    4. The senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste which detect internal signals from environment.
    5. The sensory register: It’s a system that measures our information our senses got and decide the degree of importance. If sensory register thinks certain signal unimportant, they will drop out it, so that we don’t remember it.
    6. Short-term memory: The early steps of temporary memory that will lead to stable long-term memory. It includes immediate memory and working memory.
    7. Working memory: It can be described as a work table in which something important are dealing. So if something is in our working memory, we focus on that. There is 3 parts are cooperating working memory. Central control mechanism, visuospatial sketchpad and Phonological loop.
    8. Long-term storage: It’s a file cabinet in which information is kept in some type of order.

  5. 1. Explain the usefulness of information processing model.

    Information processing model projects how the human brain accept, deal with, and store the information, so that teachers can get help from it when they plan lesson which are easier to understand and remember for students.


    2. What is the working memory?

    Working memory is a temporary memory and it is described as a work table at the information processing model. It needs our focus and attention. There are three functions at working memory: central control, phonological loop and visuospatial sketchpad. The central control mechanism is working for interaction between long-term memory and each of two other functions.


    3. Explain the difference between sense and meaning.

    Sense means understanding information that one get, while meaning means whether the information have relation with one or not. Both are influenced by one’s past experiences.


    Discussion-Compare the long- term memory and long term storage.

    Long- term memory is the processing of storing and remembering items, and long term storage is the place where the memories are stored in the brain.

    Applier:
    Knowing the information processing model is very useful because it can be a guideline to make a lesson plan for teachers. When meaning and sense present at the same time, the possibility of storing information increases, so teachers should establish context well and give reasons why students remember the information they get. Also, using chunk is more effective to help students memorize information according to working memory system. The human brain has a limitation on accepting and storing the information at a time.
