Daily Agenda
December 4 and 5 (Tue. and Wed.)
Unit VI: Cognition
In this unit students learn how humans convert sensory input into kinds of information. They examine how humans learn,
remember, and retrieve information. This part of the course also addresses problem solving, language, and creativity.
By the end of this unit, you will be able to:
1. Compare and contrast various cognitive processes: a. effortful versus automatic processing; b. deep versus shallow processing; c. focused versus divided attention. 2. Describe and differentiate psychological and physiological systems of memory (e.g., short-­‐term memory, procedural memory). 3. Outline the principles that underlie effective encoding, storage, and construction of memories. 4. Describe strategies for memory improvement. 5. Synthesize how biological, cognitive, and cultural factors converge to facilitate acquisition, development, and use of language. 6. Identify problem-­‐solving strategies as well as factors that influence their effectiveness. 7. List the characteristics of creative thought and creative thinkers. 8. Identify key contributors in cognitive psychology (e.g., Noam Chomsky, Hermann Ebbinghaus, Wolfgang Köhler, Elizabeth Loftus, George A. Miller). By the end of today’s block, you should be able to:
1. Compare and contrast effortful versus automatic processing; 2. Describe and differentiate sensory, short-­‐term, working, and long-­‐term memory
3. Outline the principles that underlie effective encoding and storage
