Conditioning, Learning, and Memory

Imagine you were going to design a computer that “thinks” and “learns” like a human does.

Answer the following questions:

• How would the computer remember things? Describe this process


• How would the computer learn? (pick one learning theory and provide example)


• In one or two sentences, what example did Dr. Cortes Franco give when conditioning Cashew?

For the initial post:

Answer the question or comment on the topic AND use information from the text, citing specific studies or information from the text (use APA style in your in-text citations). ALSO, add a personal insight, information from an earlier chapter or other course (cite your source) or your personal experience. The initial post should be a beefy paragraph or two paragraphs (about 5-10 sentences; 300 words). Initial posts will be due by Sunday 11:59 pm of the assigned week.

For the response:

Go back to the boardlater and read 3-5 posts.Respond totwoclassmates’ initial posts.
Offer a kind critique of their comment, correcting or adding to what they’ve said. If they taught you something through their post, then discuss what you initially believed before you read their answer to the question. You can respond with discussing a personal experience that supports your classmate’s point. You can offer a different perspective on the topic to challenge their view but be kind. “Yes, that’s interesting. It reminds me of this other situation (or view) … What do you think about this?” The responses can be shorter but should still be substantial (about a paragraph; 150 words). Responses will be due by Sunday 11:59 pm of the assigned week.
