"1. What is your reaction to the choices made by the author of this Reflection in terms of which memories they chose to keep and which memories they are discarding.
— My reaction to the choices made by the author of this Reflection is that I agree we would all have to start somewhere so why start at the place and with people who knew who you are.
2.How would you feel if this friend did not remember you (imagining that you are their longtime friend)?
—-I would feel a bit upset but I know I would work as hard as I can to help my friend get his/her memory back as fast I could
3. What role might you play in helping them reconstruct their memory?
—I would play the role of the best friend that would always remind them of the good times we shared and allow them to relive every moment of everything we did in the past.
4.Based on what you’ve learned in class and through your readings, what memory encoding, consolidation, and retrieval techniques might you use or teach to help this person recover and reintegrate their memories?
—Based on what I have learned in class I would used the memory encoding to help my friend or the person recover and reintegrate their memories. I believe that the best way to help a person is to help them find things that remind them of long-term memory of good times of the past."
posted on Nov 3, 2011, on the post Memory"Wow very scary topic, the thought of losing my memory really has me thinking how would I work to regain my memory and how would I re gain the memory that I lost. It makes me think do I really would try to re-gain what was lost? or would I just move on and start brand new? I would say that I'll start with a home cooked meal and then a visit to my favorite location with the help from people who would claim to be my family. Either way I would have to start somewhere."

My hypothesis for this experiment would be a bit different because I do believe that eating breakfast is very important but I would have to look at they type of breakfast that kids now of days are eating. I believe that the right type of breakfast is what give kids the type of energy they need for a good school day. One thing I do know is that surveys are a bit of waste of time because honestly, who really answer surveys correctly. The best way to do the experiment is by observation. Giving kids an option to chose from and see what happens. One group can eat a non health breakfast before school, and the experimental group eat a health breakfast. I think this would really allow the experiment to get the full dose of what the topic is asking."
posted on Oct 1, 2011, on the post Breakfast & Learning"Well this one is kinda a tough one because I love taking notes on my Ipad and I also enjoy writing my thoughts on paper so great experiment. I know can say that taking notes on my Ipad has improve my academic skills because it has allow me to study and review my notes on the go, when I'm waiting on line and while on the train. Once I'm done taking my notes I quickly send me an email containing my notes to review. That's what increases and strengthens my academic skills that automatic quick access to my notes which gives me more opportunities to study. I agree that the laptop are more visual than anything. and students would benefit having them in the classrooms. I believe that students grades would improvement by having quick access to there notes online to study since most student stay on the computers then their books."
posted on Sep 30, 2011, on the post Between Writing and Technology, Which one Improves Academic skills"Good Evening and what a great idea for an experiment. I to thought of the idea whether professors even felt some kinda way when they noticed a student pulling out a laptop to take notes. My transition from the old tradition of taking notes on paper and pen to my Ipad , I found it to have many benefits to my educational studies and test scores. I don't have to worry about spell check, erasing, or flipping pages because I ran out of space. The great thing about the new tradition of taking notes on my Ipad is that I can also voice record a lecture while I'm taking notes to help me keep up. I understand that you must look at both sides of the fence to determine what students would enjoy the most and fine different ways to go about with this experiment. I will tell you now that you are in for a shock, and I hope it goes well."
