Update #2

In the past 2 weeks, we started to make our experiments to test. Our first experiment will consist of blocking the sense of hearing to try and memorize a paragraph we are given. One person will wear noise cancelling headphones and the other will have all their senses intact. We will see if one person can memorize more then another. We then made another experiment consisting of blocking the sense of seeing. One person will cover their eyes and the other will not and they will try to memorize the first minute of 4u by Blackbear. If the results are consistent for these experiments, we could be starting to look at a potential conclusion. Our next steps are carrying out these experiments and making a few more.

  1. This seems like a good idea but how are you going to maintain consistency? If some people have heard it before they will be at an advantage or if you use different passages to memorize one might be easier than another or more well known. Your experimental methods are good though so hopefully you have successful results.
