Classmate post 11. How memories formed at the following levelsVinaOconner450
Classmate post 1:
1. How memories formed at the following levels?
· Molecular: What is long-term potentiation (LTP)?
Long term potentiation is strengthened synaptic connections through frequent activation. LTP is associated with changes in gene transcription in the neurons and is important for increased responsiveness of long lasting LTP. LTP also increases the strength of synapses by making them more sensitive to glutamate and increased activation in the future.
· Cellular: How is the hippocampus important for memory?
The hippocampus is important for memory due to its role in the overall in processing new declarative information and consolidation. Declarative memory looks like what a person knows and can tell others. This falls into two categories of semantic memory and episodic memory. This region of the brain is the important in controlling emotions, motivation and memory through the information that is processed. The hippocampus uses spatial maps and neurons to increase its ability to determine if information will be encoded, consolidated, and then retrieved for future use. Without the hippocampi in one’s brain, there is no longer a memory processing center, and no new information can enter the brain for processing and future storing. Without this region of the brain, memory does not exist.
· System: How widely are memories distributed in the brain?
Memories are stored somewhat widely, but different types of memories are stored in different places. Long term declarative memory is distributed throughout the medial temporal lobe, hippocampus, and amygdala. This includes semantic memory that deals with storage in the cortex, right frontal lobe, and temporal regions. Semantic memory is also stored in the cortex but especially in the temporal lobes. Long term nondeclarative memory is not dependent on the medial temporal lobes in the same way that declarative memory is. Skill learning and motor coordination memory, such as performing a task or remembering how to perform a task are distributed in the basal ganglia, motor cortex and cerebellum. Conditioning memory, like my body remembering that I am hungry at noon, is distributed to the cerebellum, hippocampus and cortex.
2. How would you distinguish amnesia from normal forgetting? When would you call an absent-minded person amnesic?
I would be able to distinguish amnesia from normal forgetting by looking at the degree of damage or clutter of information that needs to be recalled. A person with amnesia has had damage to their hippocampus and would have no memory or at least partial lack of memory either from the point of injury forward or from an amount of time before the injury and forward. A forgetful person may be suffering from too many things to remember, or they were not paying attention to the information that was given to them. Disruption to the memory process will complicate the encoding and consolidation processes.
I don’t honestly know if I would call an absent-minded person amnes ...

To animate or not to animate: a PowerPoint dilemma solvedPresented.
We animate by default. Trust us, we do it well. There won’t be any unnecessary bouncing or whooshing. There will be well timed entry animation to help prevent the common cognitive overload that occurs when audiences read ahead.
Animation also attracts attention, which is vital for keeping your audience engaged and focused. So we use carefully to engage, entertain and control the flow of information. Plus it looks slick.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.
This presentation by Morris Kleiner (University of Minnesota), was made during the discussion “Competition and Regulation in Professions and Occupations” held at the Working Party No. 2 on Competition and Regulation on 10 June 2024. More papers and presentations on the topic can be found out at oe.cd/crps.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

3. Content needs to be processed by
working memory in order to be stored
“Learning” occurs when info is
transferred from working memory
into long-term memory (stored).
Sensory
memory:
All impressions
of sights and
sounds happen
here.
Long-term
memory:
Where info is
stored for future
retrieval.
We want our
content here!
Working
memory:
Where information is
processed for
storage into long-
term memory.
4. The aim of every presentation
is to be remembered…
But, working memory
has volume limitations.
So we can’t present tons of new info
and expect audiences to remember it all.
Super fit working memories
can handle 7 new things!
The standard is 5, but the
safest for all is just 3 things.
6. Declutter your slides!
REMOVE all objects, pictures,
animation, lines and effects that do
not contribute to your message.
Learning improves when multimedia
is free from extraneous info.
1. Coherence principle
7. e.g. pies with legends take longer to
understand than pies with labels.
Learning improves when words are
placed near relevant pictures.
2. Spatial contiguity
principle

8. By narrating on-screen text, you are rendering
either yourself or the text redundant.
Do you really want to be the redundant
part of your presentation?
Learning reduces when
information is redundant.
3. Redundancy
principle
9. A logo can be visually redundant.
It takes up space and is ultimately ignored
when on every slide.
If it’s ignored – why clutter your slides?
If it’s not ignored – then it’s distracting!
Either way, for good communication:
you likely don’t need a logo on all slides.
3. Redundancy
principle
10. End of Part 1
If you want presentations
that really work, you have
to change the way you
create them.

13. It’s wrongly assumed
we process TEXT with the
visual channel, since we
read with our eyes.
When we process slide content,
we use two brain channels:
The visual channel (eyes)
& the verbal channel (ears)
In fact, TEXT is processed
by the verbal channel as we
listen to ourselves read.
14. For best results use the
visual and verbal
channels in sync
Overloaded verbal
channel and underused
visual channel
Here’s what happens:
✓
Text heavy slide
An overloaded verbal channel and
underused visual channel often occurs
when a text heavy slide is presented
with narration

be the right ones!

amazing, there’s a chance
your audience will recall

Poorly targeted or decorative
images are too common and are
bad for brains!

19. End of Part 2
Presentations look so similar,
because many presenters copy
what everyone else does.
It doesn’t have to be
this way!
hello@presented.co.uk
22. We know it’s important to grab
audience attention early on, but we
also need to hold it.
Humans are active learners.
Brains don’t stop: we are
constantly trying to comprehend
new info, sort it, fight distractions
and integrate it alongside existing
knowledge. It’s tiring.
24. Use things like: graphical patterns, recognised
sequences, familiar structures or concepts.
Mnemonics are popular, and can work…
But don’t overuse them, it can overload the
brain into a “recall” cycle… and the actual
learning gets lost.
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Accurate?
R ? Timely?
1. Tap into prior
knowledge
25. Simple devices like arrows
can direct attention.
Or use colour coding
for key points or sections.
Learning improves when attention
is focused on key information.
2. Signalling principle
Opt for clear navigation visuals,
so the audience knows where they
are... and where they are going!
26. Headlines themselves are
excellent signals.
Structure your presentation
to improve guidance.
Use chapters to chunk info,
with 1 key message for each chapter.
Always state a call to action:
make the goal of your presentation clear
2. Signalling principle
27. Time the entrance of content to
minimise cognitive load.
3. Temporal contiguity
principle
Make sure your narration
and your content is in sync.
Use animation to prevent your audience
from reading ahead.
(even though you’ve reduced text right?)
28. Animation attracts attention: fab.
But don’t let it distract from your message.
Overdone animation can quickly lead to cognitive
overload, so use carefully!
And don’t make your audience wait for
long animations to finish:
your PPT skills are not the purpose.
Animate only for a purpose.
3. Temporal contiguity
principle
29. End of Part 3
Most people present in a
way that goes against good
brain science.
Too many presentations
end up as wasted
opportunities.
