Well, I'm doing a final project for one of my classes for future teachers. For the project, I have to do sort of an experiment that has to do with how people learn. I can't tell you any more than that or it would invalidate the results.

Well, this is where the "guinea pig" part comes in. What you have to do is either read a passage I'm going to post a link to or listen to the audio that's also provided on the page. PM me and tell me whether you "listened" or "read" the passage and then answer these questions.

One important thing......Only read...or listen to the passage once. Do Not go back to it. Wrong answers are okay. In fact, they will give me an indicator on how people learn.


Here is the link..... http://www.uh.edu/engines/epi2156.htm

And here are the questions....... :)



1. How will animals adjust to the extinction of the human race?

2. How did the Chernobyl accident change the surrounding area?

3. Why would some animals survive and others won't without humans?

Do you want us to post our answers in the thread? Won't that invalidate the test for the next reader(s)?

in response to willard alot of animals are not extinct because we need them for something otherwise they may have became extinct some time ago if we never existed and while animals are on the mind do you get animals with neurological disorders?

Oops. I posted before I read any replies so that I would not be influenced. Do you want to copy it and then I'll delete my reply?
