Texts in Conversation Quiz: An in-depth look at the 9 texts seen in class. Context/Occasion/Audience: Argument: Structure: Rhetorical Device(s) ?I Have a Dream? By Martin Luther King, Jr. This speech by King took place on August 28, 1963. This was the pinnacle of the civil rights movement. King spoke to an audience of both White and Black Americans. This is expressed at one point in the speech where King states ??must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.? In truth, King spoke to America as a whole. (Quote is to be found in Page 2, Line 3).

NOT COMPLETE!!! THIS IS MISSING A COUPLE CHAPTERS Operant Conditioning- People and animals learn what to do, and what not to do, because of the results of what they do. They learn from the consequences. Classical Conditioning- One stimulus calls forth the response that is usually called forth by another stimulus. Reinforcement- the process by which a stimulus increases the chances that the preceding behaviour will occur again. Negative Reinforcement vs. Punishment- punishment does not teach a good behaviour, only what the bad behaviour is. negative reinforcement is unpleasant in ways such as discomfort, fear, or social disapproval Shaping- a way of teaching complex behaviours in which one first reinforces small steps in the right direction.

Influenced by LIGHT -> causes our pineal gland to increase or decrease production of melatonin. With age, we shift from night owls to morning birds.

Chapter 5 Outline On the Nature of Consciousness Consciousness is the awareness of internal and external stimuli. Includes: Awareness of external events (the professor asked me a hard question) Awareness of internal events (my heart was starting to race and I was sweating) Awareness of yourself as the unique being to experience this (why me?) Your awareness about the thought of these experiences (I?m going to make a fool of myself) Consciousness never stops and it would be an endless thought of ideas. William James nicknamed this ?the stream of consciousness? Variations in Levels of Awareness Freud argued that people?s feelings and behavior are driven by unconscious needs, wishes and conflicts.
