EDF 1005 Reflection 2
The Reading "Frames, Paradigms and Paradigm Shifts" is about how people conserve, react and process things. Schema is the way the mind lays out and organizes what is coming in. In this process framing is one of the things that occur which helps to get the information and finds a short cut. Of course as humans we make assumptions which sometimes are not so great. So we have to reframe many times. For example, when we might come up with certain steps to get to a restaurant faster. Then a friend comes and shows us an easier path our minds have to reframe and correct that information in the brain. When people where referred to as Homo Habilis their mines were not fully developed. Due to the fact, that they really did not have to think as much. All they knew was that they had to find somewhere to sleep they lived on the soil and in the dark. In later generations they started to create weapons to hunt and tools they no longer used digging sticks. No they were not as advanced as now but they surly were an upgrade to digging sticks. This made them think a lot more and that is the only way to fully start developing a brain. This made them exercise their minds and get it functioning. Without these prior inventions people’s minds would not have started working. With that said we would not have the technology and equipment we have today. Because they started to process ideas and find frames which is information that helps you understand a scene. And, with frames it helps figure out ways to do things in a shorter amount of time. I do agree with this article because the mind is just like a muscle if you do not exercise it, it will never grow and get stronger. It is just as a child you have to let them fall and get back up and try to walk if not they will never learn. A child has to keep on doing this for the brain to process it and be able to understand what to do in the walking process. Just like everything else you have to work it to develop it.
