For computers, short term memory is RAM and
long term memory is hard drive. (“C” drive or
USB)
There are three ways we store memories: first in
the sensory stage; then in short-term memory; and
ultimately, for some memories, in long-term
memory.
Because there is no need for us to maintain
everything in our brain, the different stages of
human memory function as a sort of filter that
helps to protect us from the flood of information
that we're confronted with on a daily basis.

Holonomic Brain Theory
Karl Pribram
 When we learn something new, all of the
new concepts stay as a short term
memory unless you use this new skill (or
method) 14 times.
 Only when you use the new concept (or
skill) 14 times, you will transfer this new
information from short term memory to
long term memory part of your brain.


Karl Pribram
 The long term memory part can store
unlimited amount of information.
 This is why everyday, after my lesson, you
will have to do classwork or homework,
which lets you use the new concept (or
skill) so that the new concept will be
transferred to your long term memory.

Homework policy
I will give homework 4 or 5 days a week.
 I will constantly check your homework.
(usually twice a week)
 I will mention whether you do homework
on the report card. (please ask students
who were in my accounting class last
semeter….)

Homework policy

My midterm report card: “ABC shows a
good knowledge of concepts and principles
in accounting. He shows limited use of
thinking and inquiry skills. He can
improve his marks by doing homework
everyday. He did homework 6 times out of
12 so far. His classroom behavior has
improved recently.”
Math Course Sequence
If you want to obtain same percentage you
got in MPM1D, you will have to spend
about 1.5 times more hours on this course.
 If you spend same hours that you put in
more MPM1D, you mark will drop by
about 10%.

Steps for Success in this class
Check Mr. Park’s website whenever you
are absent. You must read and
understand the “lesson slide” from
previous day before coming to the next
class.
 You must also send me an email,
explaining why you were absent that day
before or after the absence. Otherwise I
assume that you skipped. This means that
you will get zero on the quiz or test we did
on that day.

Steps for Success in this class
Attend class everyday. Do not skip any
class.
 Be on time. If you are late 5 minutes or
more, you will be sent to the office for late
slip.

Steps for Success in this class
Pay attention to the teacher.
 Do your classwork (or homework) 4 or 5
times a week.
 Ask for help when needed during class.
 Review (not study) the course material
such as review questions, homework
questions and examples I went over during
class before quiz, test or exam.

Hang tight! Almost done
Let’s go over course outline.
 Let’s go over classroom expectations
tomorrow.
 I am giving “Getting to know you” handout
as homework.
 Let’s start the first lesson.
