Chunk Essay

563 Words3 Pages

Chunking is taking individual pieces of information and grouping them together to create chunks of information. Chunking is believed to help people memorize information better. By organizing the stimulus input simultaneously into several dimensions and successively into a sequence of chunks, we manage to break (or at least stretch) this informational bottleneck (Miller, 1956). Breaking information into different groups helps with the recoding process. Recoding is the process of taking knowledge that is already in our memory and changing the way in which it is formatted.

Also, the greater racial background helps because each person is raised differently and a racial background can change the amount of memory storage they can obtain. For materials, we will be using a google slide (printed) with fifteen random numbers on it. The google slide will have a white background and the numbers will be black with a times new roman font at the size of 45. We planned to use a quiet classroom to help the participants be able to concentrate more,but that is not possible so we will have to accommodate for a noisy room. For the procedure, we will bring the participants in and set them at an empty table. We will show them the first chunking sheet for 20 seconds. After the 20 seconds are up, the participants will do jumping jacks for 20 seconds, but do not need to count how many they do. Once they finish doing the jumping jacks, they will need to sit back down and try to recall as many numbers in the correct order as they can. Each number that is out of order or skipped equals one point off. Next we will show them slide two that will have the numbers in chunks of threes and will repeat the same steps for slide one. We will then show them slide three which will have the numbers in chunks of fives and they will complete the same tasks as before. Each person will begin with a different slide. When the participants arrive, there will be two proxies with them. In

    When a person is accustomed to a lot of information before taking a decision, it confuses him/her because he/she is then subjected to numerous possibilities and consequences that his/her decision could result. Instead, a limited information would help the decision-maker to focus on his/her decision and act appropriately rather than getting second thoughts. As in the Paul Van Riper's victory in the Millenium Challenge, Paul's success was only possible because he didn't know much about the Blue Team he was competing with. When Blue Team, who had greater intellectual resources required to conquer another team, was busy analyzing their moves, Read Team that was led by Riper attacked Blue Team surprisingly and their moves were different from what the Blue Team had spent its time analyzing (105). Here, the "unpredictability" turned out to be a suitable judgment for Paul Riper.

    To complete this assignment, I first went online to search for fifth-grade fraction activities, with a focus on multiplication. After reviewing numerous potential activities I eventually landed on Fraction Flip-It, which is a game that allows students to create their own fractions depending on where they place the cards drawn. This was a large draw because the game could be played any number of times without students solving the same equation over and over. Once I had settled on the activity and how it would be set up, I began building a lesson around it. I wanted to make sure students had the necessary knowledge to succeed, which is why I included the pre-assessment Plicker quiz.

    When you play against easy people or computers, the game may seem very simple, but that is just not the case. He explains that if you ever change the difficulty of the computer opponent too hard, or challenge an opponent that knows the game well, the match would be much more different than what you would have expected. The length of these matches can also take a lengthy amount of time depending on what level the players are at. Let’s say you have some amateurs playing, the games that they play could range from ten to twenty-five minutes because they do not really think progressively about their next move, but if you had some master class chess champions with the ability to consult a computer that would help them with every single move, these type of games could last up to the full hour limit.

The short-term memory has a small capacity, and large amounts of information cannot all be stored (Schunk 2012, p. 183). To make it esier, information can be shortened or broken up to fit it in the short-term memory (Schunk 2012, p. 183). Information that is used will be transferred into the long-term store/ long-term memory (Schunk 2012, p. 183).
