The Affctive Filter Hypothesis :- The fifth hypothesis‚ the Affective Filter hypothesis‚ embodies Krashen’s view that a number of ’affective variables’ play a facilitative role in second language acquisition. These variables include motivation‚ self-confidence and a low level of anxiety are better equipped for success. Low motivation‚ low self-esteem‚ and debilitating anxiety can combine to ’raise’ the affective filter and form a ’mental block’. Comprehensible input may not be utilized by second-language

Psy-101-22 W Professor Kulpa6/16/2014 The Brain Neuroscientists have proven that the activity in the brain is altered when an individual is subject to extremely stressful or exciting circumstances. In the documentary multiple unique qualities of the brain are explored‚ studied‚ and tested to determine how we can benefit from understanding the functions of the brain. Learning about the fundamentals of the brain in the text made understanding the procedures our brain undergoes to process information‚ react

Brain tumors are abnormal growth of tissue in the brain or spinal cord. This abnormal growth disrupts the normal functions of the brain. Brain tumors are categories based on where they originated and whether they are cancerous or noncancerous. They can be benign which means they do not contain cancer cells‚ they grow slowly‚ and do not spread into other tissue. The tumors can also be malignant‚ which means they contain cancer cells and spread rapidly into surrounding tissue. ("Brain Tumors") Surgery

The Brain The central core of the human brain‚ often referred to as the “old brain”‚ is the most primitive part of the brain and can be found in all vertebrates dating back more than 500 million years. The central core is designed to help the human body with basic survival functions such as breathing‚ heartbeat‚ movement‚ balance‚ and sleep. Without the central core‚ the brain would not be able to do major task like telling our hearts to beat and how fast. The central core of the human brain

Learning about the electronic frequencies of musical notes makes it possible to use filters in digital audio programs to isolate specific instruments. For instance‚ if you want to remove the violin part from a string quartet‚ it is possible by using a filter that removes any notes played in the violin part. In the case of a violin‚ you would set your audio program to remove any frequencies below the G string‚ in this case 196 hertz. Of course‚ there is more to the story than simply removing frequencies

Like a hard drive the brain also has many wires and complicated looking things in there. It is a lot easier to understand what part of the brain does what when it is broken down into the five major parts. The brain has five major parts and each part helps the human body function. The five major parts are called the myelencephalon‚ metencephalon‚ mesencephalon‚ diencephalon

Are the brains of men and women specialized in different ways to achieve the same capabilities? Many studies are showing that the brains of men and women may be specialized in different ways to achieve the same capabilities. An example of this would be a man’s brain using one part of the brain to accomplish a task and a woman’s brain accomplishing the same task with another part of the brain. Based on the text I believe that the brains of men and women are specialized in different ways. One example
