Memory, Knowledge And Language Power Point
Imagine you are now a professional psychologist working in the specialization that you aspire to. You are charged with creating professional development for an interdisciplinary team of professionals in your workplace on how theories, principles, and evidence-based best practices of cognitive and affective psychology can be used to help people in your work context.
For this assessment, you will create a PowerPoint presentation focused on the following topics:
- Memory models and processes.
- Knowledge representation, organization, and manipulation.
- Language acquisition and competency.
Use the Presentation Template [PDF] linked in the Resources under the Required Resources heading to complete this assessment.
Note: Do not submit a paper for this assessment. Papers will not be graded.
You will complete this assessmentby replacing all language that is enclosed within brackets [. . .] in the PowerPoint Presentation Template with your own words.
As in the previous assessment, you may see the Suggested Resources for guidance on basics of PowerPoint. The same design recommendations apply to this assessment as well.
Remember, your presentation is for an interdisciplinary team, so it will be important to communicate in a manner that can be understood by those not trained in psychology.
