Today we covered Sensory and Perception Learning Theory. We discussed the five senses and how they relate to psychology and the way we use them to learn. During this session I had Abby use a blind fold and introduced to her five different items for each sense. For example, I had a curry spice, garlic powder, vinegar, basil and thyme for her to look at and name the item based on what she was seeing. I then had her smell each item and she guessed two right - vinegar and garlic. This exercise demonstrated how the senses work together as well as how even though something may appear to look like one thing but in reality it is something totally different.
