Classical Conditioning

In this assignment, you will be writing your first reflection paper. You can read more about the requirements here: Weekly Reflection Papers
In this module, you studied aspects of learning and memory. Based on what you learned in this module, what new behaviors could you create or goals could you set? Here are some ideas to get you brainstorming (you do not have to use one of these specific ideas; you can come up with something else as long as it's related to our module this week):
This module contained a lot of information about how we learn best and how we retain information. How can you use this information to create a habit around studying and study skills? Or time management?
We learned about metacognition this week. Is there a new behavior you can instill that will help you to better monitor and control your own learning and memory?
Could you use conditioning to get over a fear or taste aversion? Think of a behavior you could incorporate that might use aspects of conditioning to improve your life by overcoming something that is holding you back.
Is there a goal you could set to help to prevent memories fading or forgetting information you've learned?
Please follow this template for your reflection assignment each week:
Key Takeaway: [This is where you will briefly explain, in 2-3 sentences, the most important thing that you learned from the textbook reading in this module.]
My Reflection: [This is where you will actually reflect on this new information that you learned. How do you feel about what you read? How has it changed your viewpoint or way of understanding? This should be at least two paragraphs in length]
Important Quote: [Please include a direct quotation from the reading that you felt was meaningful or important. Be sure to include the page number. After the direct quote, explain in 2-3 sentences why this quote was meaningful or important to you.]
How I will use this in my life: [Write clear and specific ideas for how you will use this information in your life to make a change, or any specific behaviors that you will add or change now that you have learned this information. What goals might you set for yourself after what you learned in this module? This should be 1-2 paragraphs in length]
