In the fall of 2024, I had no option to complete another honors contract. I am grateful for this opportunity as the first experience I had with an honors contract the semester before was such an enlightening experience for me. One of the requirements for my BSW during my 5th semester of college was to take a 300 level social work OR psychology class. I really enjoyed my first introduction to psychology class and since cognition was offered by the same professor and met the requirement for my degree, I chose to take cognition.
This course was full of useful information that completely changed the trajectory of my academic life. It opened my eyes to new ways to study, learn, remember, and retreive memories and information. For my honors contract, I completed a research project about the effects math anxiety has on working memory and information retrieval. This project can be found HERE.
