Discussion Board: Memory

your discussion board I’d like you to answer the following questions: What did you learn about memory (in general) that you did not know before? Cite specific information from the video and/or your course text in your response. What did you learn about your own memory from taking the quiz? Do you feel the quiz was confirmation on what you already knew about yourself and your memory or did the results not really align with how you see your memory working on a daily basis? Discuss where your strengths and areas of concern lie. Are you excellent with short term memory but struggle recalling long term facts/ideas? When you take tests, do you notice that it easier for you to recall or recognize the information you are being tested on? Why do you think this is? What have you learned in the text that support or discredits your own theory of how your memory works? Cite at least two areas from the text in this section that support your personal theory of memory. There has been talk, for some time, about developing a drug that could alter a person’s memory. In certain cases (war, rape, severe trauma) do you think editing a person’s memory would be beneficial in today’s society?
