Eric - Web activity 3

Looking over Braddeley's description of the working memory and subsequent models, I tried to make the point in my visual of how information flows through our brain and begins to work on processing the information from the central executive and flows the slave domains. Meanwhile the slave domains, visuospatial and phonological, both contribute to the central executive in a cycle as more information is processed accordingly. Thus, as the central executive domain receives the information from the gray circle in the graphic, the information flows in a loop as the working memory chunks and processes information from the slave domains back to the central executive while adding to schema.

  1. I think this is a very creative interpretation of the theories. I really like that it looks clean, simple, and very well put together. My only constructive criticism would be that the image cannot necessarily speak for itself aside from a basic understanding of what is going on (I am not sure mine could either, or if that is the purpose!). Without your description of what the image represented to you as far as the theories and in-depth process, I could only gather that it is an ongoing process that involves the items listed via text, if that makes sense. Just a thought! Great job :)
