ARTICLE 19:THE COMMONALITIES AND DIFFERENCES OF A HUMAN COGNITIVE PROCESS AND A COMPUTER

In the theory of Information Process, I found out that our cognitive process ans a computer have commonalities. They are common or the same on how they function. Like a computer, our cognitive process can receive, store, and retrieve information's.

They also have differences. They differ in storage capacity and duration of the received in formations. Unlike computer, the received information's can be stored for a long tome until we needed it again, while the storage of information's in the human cognitive process is limited due to the forgetting issue. Most of the received information's , especially if not properly encoded will be forgotten.
