The Mind

This week we had studied every enjoyable topic; it was about the mind. Although we read about very interesting topics in last chapters, this chapter was amazing. First we learn about a really mysterious part of our body. Secondly we faced a lot of new words during our reading such as extraordinary, conscience, adequately and exclusive. Also we read about the memory and haw some people have strong memory than others. We learned the best way to have strong memory. Through our reading about the mind we used Avery helpful and important strategy which was underlining and marginal glossing. On this strategy we underline the main points, new words, and important names. Also on this strategy showed us how to write and summarize the mine ideas on the margins to help us to remember them. On the other hand we had learned a lot of new and interesting topic on our writing book about the mind. We learned how to analyze level of generality which was divided to two tips, the first one is top down organization and the other is divided organization. Both were useful, I liked the first one more. Finally we went to the lab were we did some research and tested our mind. The results were really great.
