MEMORY 🆚 BRAIN

Memory

• can store information
• ability of an individual to  encode,store and retrive information

Brain 

• a organ 

                                         

FORGET AND REMEMBER

Why we forget things easily?

✋Distraction

✋Lack of focus

✋Time factor

✔It easy to remember it if we always do repetition and rehearsal after gain any information 📚or knowledge💪

UNDERSTANDING MEMORY PROCESS

TYPES OF MEMORY

1.SENSORY MEMORY (SM)

• OUR SENSE ARE ALWAYS BUSY.WE HEAR,SEE,SMELL,TASTE AND TOUCH HUNDREDS OF STIMULI EACH MOMENT

• WE HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THEM OR THEY ARE QUICKLY FORGOTTEN.

• ATTENTION IS CRITICAL TO THE FUCTIONING OF THE SENSORY REGISTERS.

• SO,WITHOUT ATTENDING TO THE INFORMATION PRESENTED,YOU CAN'T PROCESS THAT INFORMATION THROUGH THE SENSORY REGISTER.

2.SHORT TERM MEMORY (STM)

• HOLD ON THE INFORMATION AND GET IT INTO YOUR LONG TERM MEMORY.

• THIS PART OF THE MEMORY SYSTEM IS APTLY NAMED BECAUSE YOU REALLY HAVE TO WORK ON THE MATERIAL TO MAKE IT MEANINGFUL,MEMORABLE AND EASY TO RETRIEVE.
• VARIETY STRATEGIES TO MOVE INFORMATION INTO LONG TERM MEMORY.

      3.LONG TERM MEMORY (LTM)

• MATERIAL THAT HAS BEEN PROCESSED IN WORKING MEMORY,IT CAN BE MOVED INTO LONG TERM MEMORY.

• ALMOST UNLIMITED CAPACITY.

• THE MORE WE LEARN,THE MORE CAPACITY FOR LEARNING WE APPEAR TO HAVE.

• PROVIDE ADDING A NEW MEMORIES.

• REMARKABLE

MEMORY STRATEGIES

1.Massed practice vs Spaced practice

Massed practice (not good)-involves studying all the materials at on time.DO NOT HAVE TIME TO UNDERSTAND,REMEMBER AND ORGANIZE THE READING MATERIALS.

Space practice (good,recommended)-involves space time over some period of time for studying.Spaced practice allows time for the information to consolidate in the long-term memory.

2.BREAK READING MATERIAL DOWN

3.REHEARSAL

If get any information must be in practice so we can always remember that memory in long-term memory.it involves REPETITION.

4.ELABORATION STRATEGIES

• ACRONYMSYOU 

EXAMPLE: MAS-Malaysian Airline System

• ACROSTICS

EXAMPLE: carnivores-animal eaters

                      herbivores-plant eaters

                      omnivores-animal and plant eaters

                      decomposers-eat decaying organism

the catchphrase.' Can Henry Omit Dents'

• ASSOCIATION

Grouping the information in same group or classification the infomation.

                    

                              UNDERSTANDING CONCENTRATION 

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF CONCENTRATION?

• FOCUSING WHAT YOU ARE DOING 

POOR CONCENTRATION

• LACK OF ATTENTION
• LACK OF INTEREST
• LACK OF MOTIVATION
• DISTRACTION FROM OTHERS
• UNCOMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT
• PHYSIOLOGICAL MATTERS(TIREDNESS)
• PERSONAL MATTERS

         

   

STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE CONCENTRATION

• ALWAYS MOTIVATIONAL AND GOOD IN ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGIES

• GOOD IN  POSITIVE LEARNING MANAGEMENT

• BE AN ACTIVE LEARNER

• ALWAYS MANAGE YOUR CONCENTRATION.

SQ3R

SURVEY

MAKE SOME REVIEW BY  SUBTOPIC TO GET SOME INFORMATION BEFORE LEARN IT.

EXAMPLE: TOPIC,GRAPH,PIE CHART,IMAGERY AND SIMPLE TOPIC

QUESTION

                                              BUILD YOUR OWN QUESTION WHEN STUDY SO WE CAN ALWAYS NEED AN ANSWER.

READ

READ THE PARAGRAPH PROPERLY TO GET SOME INFORMATION

THEN,ANSWERING THE QUESTION THAT HAVE BEEN BUILD.

THIS METHOD HELP THE STUDENT MORE FOCUS WHILE READING.

RECITE

MAKE A SIMPLE NOTES.

ALWAYS REMEMBER THE KEYWORDS  AND IMPORTANT POINT.

ALWAYS MAKE SOME PRACTICE TO GET MORE UNDERSTAND ABOLUT WHAT WE HAVE BEEN LEARNED.

SO,PRACTICE MAKE THE STUDENT PERFECT.

REVIEW

MAKE SOME REVISION.

MAKE SOME REVIEW THE OLDER NOTES TO REMEMBER IT.

BECAUSE OF THE SIMPLE NOTES WILL REMEMBER IN LONG-TERM MEMORY.
