I saw this today and immediately thought of psychology. Of course, I look at nearly everything and ask myself if it will fit into class. With this cartoon, I thought of memory, rehearsal, encoding, and, of course, interference--specifically retroactive interference, the kind where new information impedes the ability for old information to be there. While it may not fit exactly, it is a fun connection.

Teens and Memory Cartoon
I saw this today and immediately thought of psychology. Of course, I look at nearly everything and ask myself if it will fit into class. With this cartoon, I thought of memory, rehearsal, encoding, and, of course, interference--specifically retroactive interference, the kind where new information impedes the ability for old information to be there. While it may not fit exactly, it is a fun connection.
