An Arctic Idol From mutants to aliens, superhumans and demigods, the idea of a hero has been an immense subject throughout our culture. The superficial idea that heroes have some other quality that ranks them beyond human is reflected the most in movies and comics. What is the first thing that popped into your head when you heard the word hero—Superman? Ironman? Batman? The term shouldn’t be restricted to Marvel’s DC Universe characters. How we use the word hero should extend to everyday people

An Arctic Idol From mutants to aliens, superhumans and demigods, the idea of a hero has been an immense subject throughout our culture. Still, the superficial idea that heroes have some other quality that ranks them beyond human is reflected the most in movies and comics.

occurrence. In The Hanged Man, Robert Bartlett writes of a man who was executed, but allegedly rose from the dead in the Middle Ages. The story of William Cragh is not only a riveting anecdote, but also, an insightful look at the legal system of the Middle Ages. The Hanged Man helps to explain the relationship between England and Wales, the legal process that led to hanging, as well as societal perceptions of criminals and outlaws in the Medieval Period. Robert Bartlett is able to present a complicated

assist in organization of information. Schema Theory is focused on conceptual learning and states that knowledge seeks organization in order to develop meaning (Anderson, 1984). Contributors: Major contributors to Schema Theory include Frederic Bartlett, Jean Piaget, Richard C. Anderson, Marvin

Frederic Bartlett (1932) is argued to have laid the foundation for a schema theory with the “key assumption of previous knowledge affecting the processing of new stimuli” (Carbon & Albrecht, 2012, p. 2258). Bartlett’s interest was in the role played by prior knowledge in the interpretation of stories. This may explain why the concept “knowledge” appeared as a key term in Rumelhart’s (1980) famous definition of the notion of schemas, or as he prefers to call it, “schemata”: [S]chemata can represent

An example of this is when Bartlett says, “My friends would often complain about being harassed and catcalled by the construction workers — even more so when they wore their yoga clothes. I passed the site day after day without incident,” this incident highlights that insecurities

Bartlett found that story recall depends on how memory is reconstructed, and that there would be selective omissions of information, rationalization, a dominant theme, and transformation of information and sequence, and general blending of information. Bartlett constructed a new framework for memory and explained the importance of prior experience in one’s memory for narrative information

when necessary. Even so, retrieving memory was no longer the process of picking out an asymmetrical experience from storage, rather than the reconstruction of experience of using the schema as a guide. (Gray 2010) Definition According to Frederic Bartlett, schema is the knowledge, beliefs or

originally introduced by Sir Frederic Bartlett, in the 1920’s. According to Bartlett, social factors influence one’s ability to remember, and in turn, can either change a person’s perception of a specific memory or distort the original memory. As opposed to the memory being a ‘passive mechanism’ which indicates that the brain can store data and facts which can later be recalled without distortion and remain as they were when they were first encoded. Bartlett suggests

The Earth’s population is growing rapidly leading to a state where human population exceeds the Earth’s carrying capacity. Thomas Robert Malthus was the first economist to start the theory of population and the idea of overpopulation. He wrote his views and explanation about population and its consequences in his essay on “Principles of Population” which was published in 1798. The book explained the relationship between food and population, and their growth patterns. His views on the theory of overpopulation
