To  observe and understand the dynamics of your memory in daily life. SEE  directions. This assignment spans three days, so please plan  accordingly.

Assignment Description:

1. Memory Collection (40 points):
   For  three days, carry a small notebook with you. Whenever you recall a  memory spontaneously (not because of this assignment), jot it down  briefly. Note the time, the memory, and what might have triggered it.
2. Memory Analysis (30 points):
   At  the end of the three days, review your notes and categorize each memory  into one of the following types: episodic, semantic, procedural, or  emotional. Provide a brief explanation for your categorization.
3. Reflection (30 points):
   Write a short reflection  discussing:
   
   • The most common type of memory you recalled and why you think that is.
   • How external cues (like a song, smell, place, etc.) influenced your memory recall.
   • Any patterns or surprises you noticed about your memory recall.

Guidelines:

• Be as spontaneous and honest as possible in recording your memories.
• The reflection doesn't need to be formal or lengthy; focus on genuine insights over volume.
• Please respect privacy – both yours and others'. Avoid sharing overly personal or sensitive information.

Duration:
The  memory collection should be done over a period of three days, but the  entire assignment, including analysis and reflection, should take about  one hour to complete.
