Study of Consciousness

The human brain is a powerful organ that controls every function within the body, yet every brain is unique. Many people are intrigued with different ways to increase memory addition, memory capacity, memory recall, and decrease forgetfulness. In order to enhance the benefits and reduce the deficits, a typical memory function, or learning curve must be created. After speaking with many different high achieving students, it was possible to map out the typical school day. Then a comparison could be made with how much information is taken in compared with how much is lost over the typical day. With the use of partial derivatives, linear systems, and matrix operations, the type of memory function created was that of a parabola.
