Essay

Provide a thorough response in at least three and no more than five well-organized paragraphs. Your

response should focus on synthesizing across the provided topics. For each essay question, there is at

least one connection that can be made throughout the topics mentioned. If you cannot determine a

connection between them, then you may want to choose another question.

Start by making a claim that you think connects all three topics. Then address each topic individually

as an argument. Conclude by ensuring that the connexion you claim does indeed answer the question.

1. Draw a single connection between the topics of human Reasoning, Problem Solving and

Decision-Making that sheds light on the problem of poverty.

2. What one thing can research findings from Creativity, Expertise and Memory tell us about how

to improve education?

3. Discuss how one thing we know from Information Processing Theory, Dual Processing theory,

and Reber’s Emergentism of consciousness can help us predict the path of human evolution.

4. Use findings from any three topics throughout the semester and explain how they point to one

thing that can help us avoid war.
