and the process involved in forgetting information. In

addition, the chapter discusses how we as humans think,

reason, and solve problems and the role our brains play in

developing language.

Then, write your essay about one of the following topics:

1. Discuss the process of memory. In particular, discuss

the different types of memory and relate each one to a

personal experience.

As our country becomes more multicultural, how can

these theories aid our children and/or you in learning a

second and perhaps a third language?

Chapter 7 states that humans are born to be motivated to

satisfy our needs, discusses why some of us seek out more

sensation and thrills more than others, explains why emotions

and the need for power rule some of us, and ends with

a discussion of the cultural differences on how we as humans

express emotions.

Then, write your essay about one of the following topics:

1. According to Maslow, our motivation progresses up a

of those models and describe what you do in the event of

a crisis. Provide specific examples.
