OBJECT RECOGNITION
This week’s Assignment focuses on how we recognize and make sense of objects using concepts
from cognitive psychology. You begin by describing a familiar object based only on its visual features
—like shape, color, and texture—without naming it. Then, using ideas from the Learning Resources,
such as top-down or bottom-up processing, multi-sensory perception, or Gestalt principles, you will
explain how your brain identifies the object.
Finally, you will reveal what the object is and reflect on how these concepts influence the way you
interact with the world. Completing this task allows you to see how psychological concepts apply to
everyday life and deepen your understanding of how perception shapes your experiences.
