One of the most interesting and important types of memory we learned about in chapter 8 is the Flashbulb memory. The example that the authors use is the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade center. Think about a more recent current event like the most recent school shooting that has happened in the USA. Do you remember where you were when you heard about this event? Who were you with and what were you doing? What did you talk about? After jotting down a few notes, contact someone who was with you when you learn about the school shooting and ask them what they remember from that day. Are your memories identical or different? Are the differences important details or not? Write abeut what you learned about inaccurate and false memories from this experience and the chapter 8 section on Flashbulb memories and Inaccurate and False Memories.
