The Mental Process of Speech ComprehensionEko_Mulyono
Speech comprehension is a complex mental process, which plays a significant part in our English study. Mental process itself means the process how human study langauge. Based on the psycholinguistics theory and taken English as its researching language, this paper tries to find out the mental processes of speech comprehension. In comprehending the meaning of utterances we face the following problems: How humans can understand a word, phrase, clause, sentence, or discourse they hear? Or how comprehension can be formed? Although listeners are typically in a position correctly to identify the distal sources of their acts of comprehension, through perception of productions of speech, it appears that they need not always be in that position.
The study of human memory has been a subject of science and philosophy for thousands of years and has become one of the major topics of interest within cognitive psychology.
But what exactly is memory? How are memories formed? The following overview offers a brief look at what memory is, how it works and how it is organized.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The main objective of this presentation is to
investigate the role of memory in language learning.
Its purpose is also to highlight the functions of
memory in human brain.
Its aim is to describe the role of memory in language
comprehension and production.
Aims and Objectives
5.
In psychology, memory is the process in which
information is encoded, stored, and retrieved.
Encoding allows information that is from the outside
world to reach our senses in the forms of chemical and
physical stimuli. In this first stage we must change the
information so that we may put the memory into the
encoding process.
Storage is the second memory stage or process. This
entails that we maintain information over periods of time.
Finally the third process is the retrieval of information
that we have stored. We must locate it and return it to
our consciousness.
Introduction
6.
From the information processing perspective there are
three main stages in the formation and retrieval of
memory:
Encoding or registration: receiving, processing and
combining of received information
Storage: creation of a permanent record of the encoded
information
Retrieval, recall or recollection: calling back the stored
information in response to some cue for use in a process
or activity
The loss of memory is described as forgetfulness, or as a
medical disorder, amnesia.

Sensory memory holds sensory information for less
than one second, after an item is perceived. The
ability to look at an item, and remember what it
looked like with just a split second of observation, or
memorization, is an example of sensory memory.
It is out of cognitive control and is an automatic
response. With very short presentations, participants
often report that they seem to "see" more than they
can actually report.
Sensory memory
8.
There are three types of sensory memories.
Iconic memory is a fast decaying store of visual
information, a type of sensory memory that briefly stores
an image which has been perceived for a small duration.
Echoic memory is a fast decaying store of auditory
information, another type of sensory memory that briefly
stores sounds that have been perceived for short
durations.
Haptic memory is a type of sensory memory that
represents a database for touch stimuli.
Types of sensory memory
9.
Short-term memory allows recall for a period of
several seconds to a minute without rehearsal.
Short-term memory is believed to rely mostly on an
acoustic code for storing information, and to a lesser
extent a visual code.
The storage in sensory memory and short-term
memory generally has a strictly limited capacity
and duration, which means that information is not
retained indefinitely.
Short-term memory
10.
Long-term memory can store much larger quantities
of information for potentially unlimited duration
(sometimes a whole life span).
Its capacity is immeasurably large. For example,
given a random seven-digit number we may
remember it for only a few seconds before forgetting,
suggesting it was stored in our short-term memory.
On the other hand, we can remember telephone
numbers for many years through repetition; this
information is said to be stored in long-term
memory.
Long-term memory
12.
Up until the middle of the 1980s it was assumed that infants
could not encode, retain, and retrieve information.
A growing body of research now indicates that infants as young
as 6-months can recall information after a 24-hour delay.
Furthermore, research has revealed that as infants grow older
they can store information for longer periods of time; 6-month-
olds can recall information after a 24-hour period, 9-month-olds
after up to five weeks, and 20-month-olds after as long as
twelve months.
In addition, studies have shown that with age, infants can store
information faster. Whereas 14-month-olds can recall a three-
step sequence after being exposed to it once, 6-month-olds need
approximately six exposures in order to be able to remember it.
Memory in infancy
13.
Although people often think that memory operates
like recording equipment, it is not the case. The
molecular mechanisms underlying the induction and
maintenance of memory are very dynamic and
comprise distinct phases covering a time window
from seconds to even a lifetime.
In fact, research has revealed that our memories are
constructed. People can construct their memories
when they encode them and/or when they recall
them.
Memory construction and
manipulation
14.
Language is a means of communication, in this case human
uses language as a tool to convey the ideas and decode the
message. Human always uses language to communicate with
one another.
Basically, there are two kinds of languages that human learned
in their life, the first language (L1) and the second language
(L2). The first language is human’s mother tongue, the
language when they firstly hear and try to acquire after they
were born. While second language is the language that they
learn after they have mastered their first language. Usually they
learn the second language in the formal school.
The most important thing that we should notice is that we
acquire rather than learn the first language and the other way
around. When we learn the second language, memory plays the
important role.
The role of memory in learning
a language
15.
Memory is one of factors which can be used to predict the
performance of a student’s learning foreign language.
There are two kinds of memories in our mind, short term
memory and long term memory.
Short term memory or better known as working memory
plays three important roles before the messages are being
transferred to the long term memory or permanent
memory. There are three important roles of working
memory in learning language, the language processing,
namely language comprehension, language production,
and vocabulary acquisition.

16.
In language comprehension, working memory provides
the temporary storage space for the information before it
is sent on in a recorded form to the long term memory.
When comprehending the interlocutor’s messages, a
person must do more than retrieve the meanings of the
individual words.
Moreover a person must determine the relations among
the word meanings, based on the syntactic structure of
the sentence. Regarding of this fact, we need the temporal
storage to store the string of the words and then process it
so that we can comprehend the language that is being
uttered by the interlocutor including foreign language or
utterances.
Language Comprehension
17.
According to the famous psycholinguist, George Miller, When
people hear someone speaking they can recall five to nine
chunks of information in short period of time. These chunks of
information must be at first reordered into analysis unit before
they are held in working memory.
In this case, when we learn language we try to remember a
chunk of the words that is being uttered by our teacher or
native speaker. These words are stored in our working
memory.
Then, we try to not only to retrieve the meaning of the
individual words but also to determine the relations among the
word meanings, based on the syntactic structure of the
sentence. In learning a new language this process may become
long.
Language Comprehension
18.
In language production, working memory becomes
the place where the pronunciations of the words are
put in linear order on the basis of the syntactic and
semantic relations in the intended utterance before
the construction of a motor program that produces
the utterance.
When we try to say something or produce the
utterance from the foreign language, certain sound
must be presented in working memory so that we
will not make error in speech.
Language Production
19.
Lashley (1951) gives us an example that to be able to
pronounce the sentence “Consider Reverend
Spooner'sour queer old dean in place of our dear old
queen” correctly, the /kw/ sound to be inserted in the
intended word dear, must already be presented in
working memory, waiting its turn for phonological
integration.
This means that speech cannot be produced
by simple chaining of words one to another; rather
some overall planning must be going on in advance.
Continue…
20.
In acquiring the new vocabulary, working memory has a
limited-capacity that is called “phonological loop” in which
phonological material is stored, maintained in sequence, and
rehearsed.
Neuropsychological studies have provided strong evidence
suggesting that the phonological loop plays a critical role in
vocabulary acquisition.
The phonological loop system is specialized in storing verbal
material and is composed of two subsystems: a phonological
store and an articulatory rehearsal process.
Vocabulary Acquisition
21.
The phonological store receives directly and unavoidably
any information auditorily presented and stores it in
terms of a sound-based code.
Although material in this store is subject to decay and
interference, it can be maintained and reinforced through
the articulatory rehearsal mechanism.
The phonological store is also able to receive visually
presented items but these must first be converted into an
articulatory form before gaining access to the store. These
items are conveyed to the store by the articulatory
rehearsal process.

22.
Memory has three important roles in learning a language.
Working memory is the place where language is being
processed. Working memory provides the temporary
storage that is very useful in language comprehension
process.
In language production, working memory becomes the
place where the pronunciations of the words are put in
linear order on the basis of the syntactic and semantic
relations in the intended utterance before the construction
of a motor program that produces the utterance.
Conclusion
23.
Moreover through phonological loop the new
vocabulary is being stored and rehearsed in working
memory before it is transferred to the long term
memory.
This information is very useful to not only the
teacher who teaches the second language in formal
class but also for the independent learner who tries
to learn language. In this case they can maximize the
function of memory in learning language.
