From the HIP perspective‚ the human mind is understood as a system that processes incoming information from the environment. HIP is an abstraction of the set of processes involved in several aspects of human behavior including problem solving and decision making in both everyday and professional environments. This system can be described

help one find an object by‚ say‚ focusing on the location of the target. There are two modes of attention in which people typically rely on: parallel processing and serial processing. Parallel processing involves investigating and analyzing a multitude of objects on many different kinds of analysis all at the same time. In contrast‚ serial processing involves investigating each object one at a time. What strikes our interest and the question at hand is whether attention moves in a parallel or

The Information Processing Model The following example of an information processing model gives an insight into how the brain processes information and where that information is stored in our memory. It stems from the ideas of several theorists (Atkinson & Shriffen 1968; Nessier 1976; R.Gagne 1985.) In my teaching environment‚ the implications that could stem from this model could be the importance of trying to connect the topic about to be discussed with the students. Sensory memory
