Behaviorist memes

Last time, I mentioned that I wanted to try something new with my "Learning and Memory" class. They have a paper due at each exam which essentially requires them to summarize the notes, give a real-life example of the concepts, and then describe how this can help them in their future careers.

I told them that they can substitute an internet meme for this assignment at any time. I feel that the ability to find humor in your discipline, and express it pictorially, lets me know that students have a decent grasp on that concept. What could be more real-life than comedy?

Having said that, here is the first student submission. I laughed so hard!
