Exporatorium

[Jim Matiya]

Hi,

I need a little. okay Paul Smith according to you I need more than a little, but anyway!! ;)

I always use the memory exhibit at the exploratorium (www.exploratorium.edu/memory/ ) the exhibit is described as having the biological, psychological, and cultural aspects of memory. It's an extremely well-done site. BUT, my students always seem to have problem filtering out the info on the psychological and cultural aspects of memory. 

I simply ask them to write a paragraph summary of each of the aspects.  The results are awful. The information is there, I can read it, but it just seems to float through them.....

I need some teaching tips on how to use this site better. Any ideas?
