Brain and Learning Week 2

This week's assignment was to find two website and/or online journals that spoke to the subject of the brain and learning, information processing theory and problem-solving methods during the learning process. The two websites that I chose are http://www.edpsycinteractive.org/topics/cogsys/infoproc.html and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/learning_theory_(education).

I have often explored wikipedia for various information and found the source to be creditable in its content. Wikipedia also has links on its site that allow the learner to explore deeper as they get into the information. It has a wealth of knowledge on any topic.

The first link that I posted is a site that deals with the brain and learning, the information processing approach to cognition. This site features a model that allows you to visually look at long and short term memory and how the brain processes the information.
