Define memory 27 10 2011 03 48 00 The persistence of learning over time through the encoding storage and retrieval of information Compare and contrast encoding storage and retrieval Encoding Storage Retrieval Understand what is meant by sensory memory short term Putting information into memory Retaining encoded information Getting information out of storage memory and long term memory Sensory Memory Short term memory activated memory that holds a few items The immediate very brief recording of sensory info in the memory system briefly such as the seven digits of a phone number while dialing before the info is stored or forgotten storehouse of the memory system Includes knowledge skills and experiences the relatively permanent and limitless Long term memory What is working memory A newer understanding of short term memory that focuses on conscious active processing of incoming auditory and visual spatial info and of info retrieved from long term memory Keeps information active and accessible Helps coordinate ongoing mental activities Know what is meant by the Magic number 7 plus or minus 2 What this magical number represents 7 plus or minus 2 is the number of items we can hold in our short term memory Quickly lost without rehearsal within 20 seconds or less w rehearsal can be stored Know the following and be able to recognize examples of each repetition strategy that maintains information in Rehearsal working memory o Repeating a phone number Chunking packing strongly associated information together unitizing Increases the amount of information that can fit in
