BAF3M (Grade 11 Accounting)

Mr. Park

Holonomic Brain Theory Karl Pribram For computers, short term memory is RAM

and long term memory is hard drive. (“C” drive or USB)

There are three ways we store memories: first in the sensory stage; then in short-term memory; and ultimately, for some memories, in long-term memory.

Because there is no need for us to maintain everything in our brain, the different stages of human memory function as a sort of filter that helps to protect us from the flood of information that we're confronted with on a daily basis.

Holonomic Brain Theory .

Holonomic Brain Theory Karl Pribram When we learn something new, all of

the new concepts stay as a short term memory unless you use this new skill (or method) 14 times.

Only when you use the new concept (or skill) 14 times, you will transfer this new information from short term memory to long term memory part of your brain.

Holonomic Brain Theory Karl Pribram The long term memory part can store

unlimited amount of information. This is why everyday, after my lesson,

you will have to do classwork or homework, which lets you use the new concept (or skill) so that the new concept will be transferred to your long term memory.

Homework policy I will give homework 4 or 5 days a

week. I will constantly check your

homework. (usually twice a week) I will mention whether you do

homework on the report card.

Homework policy My 5th week report card: “ABC

shows a good knowledge of concepts and principles in accounting. He shows limited use of thinking and inquiry skills. He can improve his marks by doing homework everyday. He did homework 6 times out of 12 so far. His classroom behavior has improved recently.”

Check Mr. Park’s website whenever you are absent. You must read and understand the “lesson slide” from previous day before coming to the next class.

You must also send me an email, explaining why you were absent that day before or after the absence. Otherwise I assume that you skipped. This means that you will get zero on the quiz or test we did on that day.

Attend class everyday. Do not skip any class.

Be on time. If you are late 5 minutes or more, you will be sent to the office for late slip.

Pay attention to the teacher. Do your classwork (or homework) 4

or 5 times a week. Ask for help when needed. Review (not study) the course

material such as review questions, homework questions and examples I went over during class before quiz, test or exam.
