week 9 homework: Lecture Review

Joachim de Posada: Don't eat the marshmallow!


   In the lecture, Joachim de Posada talks about an outstanding experiment on self-discipline which was done in Stanford. The experiment presented how the reaction of the kids who were told not to eat the marshmallow in front of them for 15 minutes to get another one and the future success are related. In the follow-up study 14-5 years later, those who had not eaten the marshmallow was reported living successful lives. In addition, Dr. de Posada got exactly the same result from the another same experiment in Colombia. Perhaps many of you already heard of this study as Dr. de Posada says that he wrote a book of it and spread into Korea. Nonetheless, I recommend you to watch this video again. To see how kids were trying their hardest not to eat marshmallow is both funny and impressive. Also, it must be helpful to keep this in mind when you teach little kids in your future.
