Site 2 Review: This is an extremely lengthy and detailed description and explanation of amodal and perceptual symbol systems. It explains strengths and problems with each symbol system.

Tags: Lawrence Barsalou, amodal symbol systems, perceptual symbol systems, perception, memory, cog3310

I choose the tag Lawrence Barsalou because he is the psychologist and author of the article, amodal and perceptual symbol systems because those are two of the focuses of the article and cog3310 for class.

title: Neurons….Born in the Brain

address:http://www.sfn.org/index.cfm?pagename=news_111505b

review: this page just gives a quick description of how your brain acquires knowledge through generating new neurons.

tags: cog3310, chapter 5

reasons: this page is very brief in discussing the plasticity of the brain in learning, but serves as a way of gaining a little more clarification and a different perspective.

address: http://www.psych.utoronto.ca/users/joordens/courses/PsyA01/Chapter8/tsld047.htm

review: these are descriptive slides produced for students studying LTM and these slides discuss the decay of LTM and how it may be measured.

tags: cog3310, chapter 5

reasons: this gives a good clarification for the measure of decay of LTM for those who do not completely understand the concept

Single Neurons in the Monkey Hippocampus and Learning of New Associations
The medial temporal lobe is crucial for the ability to learn and retain new declarative memories. This form of memory includes the ability to quickly establish novel associations between unrelated items. To better understand the patterns of neural activity during associative memory formation, we recorded the activity of hippocampal neurons of macaque monkeys as they learned new associations. Hippocampal neurons signaled learning by changing their stimulus-selective response properties. This change in the pattern of selective neural activity occurred before, at the same time as, or after learning, which suggests that these neurons are involved in the initial formation of new associative memories.

Site Review: This is a helpful, brief, and easy to understand review over semantic memory and even gives examples of different hypothetical networks. It also goes over a few vocab words that are in chapter five that might be helpful.

Tags: cog3310, semantic memory, propositional networks

Reasoning for tags: cog3310 for class, semantic memory and propositional networks because that’s what is contained in the article.

This is an article that gives a fairly easy understanding of schema. It discusses how the mind perceives the world. (Reality) It talks about how people have their own schemas and when we perceive something we try to fit it into our own schemas so we identify with it.

Tags: cog3310 cognition psychology prof_chuck schema

I used the tags based on the article being about schemas and I added the class tags.

2. http://www.scism.sbu.ac.uk/inmandw/tutorials/memory/qu9.htm

This is a great site discussing how cognitive psychology and understanding how the brain works with memory can be used to develop new computer memory. I talks about Hierarchical encoding, and retention of detail compared to meaning.

Tags: cog3310 cognition psychology prof_chuck hierarchical encoding memory

I tagged hierarchical, encoding, and memory along with the class tags due to the discussion of memory and encoding in the article.

review: this site provides distinction between episodic, semantic, and procedural memory. It also further discusses propositional networks

tag: cog3310, semantic memeory, episodic memory, procedural memeory, propositional networks,

rational: semantic, episodic, and procedural memory b/c it discusses them. Propositional networks because it goes into depth about what exactly they are.

review: nothing special, however, this website displays a clear cut definition of what schemas are, as well as a few external links.

Tag: cog3310, schema,

Rational: cog3310 for class, schema because that’s the websites focus,
