Memory is the processes of the brain which is the organ to store , maintaining and remembering information




INFORMATION PROCESSING MODEL








Sensory Memory

Sensory memory is the first stage in getting information process. Its subconsciously controlled using humans' five senses through the environment. However, the information given only holds for a brief period.

Short-Term Memory

Short-Term memory is the second stage that holds information temporarily after sensory memory but only stores interpretation of the information.


Long-Term Memory

Long-term memory is the information that stores for a long period even though some of it may forgotten. Long-term memory also has unlimited capacity and easy to recall.



MEMORY STRATEGIES



Massed Learning 

Massed learning is not something that were not recommended to practice in learning which is generally defined as practice that occurs continuously without rest between learning. It will cause problem to massed learner because they studying all the materials in a short period at one time.

 Spaced Learning

Spaced learning is the best way to study than massed learning because its spread out over time and allows the information to consolidate in the long-term memory. The learning sessions that has break within it will give time to organize the info perfectly.





OTHER WAYS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR MEMORY




  • Break Reading Materials(Have break between study in some period of time) 
  • Practice(Repeat the info many times)
  • Associations(Linked the info into the imagination with a thing,person,place or situation)
  • Acronyms/Catchwords(Combined the first letter or first few letters of each word)
  • Acrostics/Catchphrases(Combined the certain letters in each line and spell out a word or phrase)

  • Note-Taking Skills(Jot down the main points,write notes from lectures)


CONCENTRATION STRATEGIES

 When concentrating fully you are so absorbed in what you are doing you are unaware of time passing or of what is going on around you.…The length of time for which you can concentrate fully depends on factors such as your enthusiasm for what you are doing, your skill at a particular task, your emotional and physical state, and your surroundings at the time.Source: Marshall, L. and Rowland, F.

(Robinson, 1946)
