One of the classes I am taking this semester is Sensation and Perception psychology. It has been really interesting so far and think it will continue to be interesting. Today, the teacher used a really neat example of how we sense and perceive things. I had seen this example before but it never ceases to amaze me.
"Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabridge Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny ipromoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a ttoal mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh?"
I think because of all the technology I have access to that "thinks" for me, I forget how capable the brain is, but when I think about all that we are able to do, it is absolutely overwhelming to me.
