Memory
Memory • The persistence of learning over time through the storage and retrieval of information –Your memory is your mind’s storehouse, the reservoir of your accumulated learning
Memory • Memory involves three fundamental processes: 1. Encoding 2. Storage 3. Retrieval
What do you think? • Talk to the person sitting next to you • What do you think each of the three means in terms of memory • Check to see if you were correct
Memory – Information Processing • Encoding – putting into • Storage – keeping • Retrieval –getting out
Sensory Information • Every second are potential memories • What do you pay attention to • I. e. – walking down the hall – who do you remember? Why? • Cocktail party effect
Encoding • Encoding is the processing of information into the memory system – the first step of building a memory is sensory input
Encoding – Effortful Processing • Two effortful practices that may help to gather (encode) sensory information include rehearsal and spacing
Encoding – • Rehearsal – the conscious repetition of information • Like studying or practice!
Encoding – • Spacing Effect – rehearsing information repeatedly, over time. • Spaced studying beats cramming! • Rehearse a bit, take a break, begin rehearsing as you start forgetting things, take a break, rehearse again as you begin to forget, etc.
Types of Encoding • Visual (Mental) Encoding – the encoding of picture images • Acoustic Encoding – the encoding of sounds • Semantic Encoding – the encoding of meanings, especially of words
Visual Encoding • Where did you go yesterday, who was with you, where did you eat, and what did you wear? Remembering visual information is often easier than remembering formulas, definitions, names and dates. • Visual encoding applies the idea of mental pictures to words and concepts, in order to put them into memory easier.
Encoding –Mental Imagery • A mental picture of Lady Macbeth. • While reading John Grisham’s “The Firm”, you picture Tom Cruise as the main character.
Encoding – Mental Imagery • When encoding a list of words, apply a mental picture to each word. IE. Typewriter, fire, cigarette, scary.
Encoding – Mental Imagery Example • Grocery List • A through J • Make a list of thing you buy @ the grocery store starting with A, B, C – J • Directions follow
Auditory Encoding - Sounds • auditory encoding enhances the processing of information by applying rhyme schemes, stories, songs, etc. to the information.
Encoding – Auditory Encoding • 30 Days has September, April, June and November. All the rest have 31, except February… • In fourteen hundred and ninety-two Columbus sailed the Ocean Blue. • "i" before "e, " except after "c, " or in sounding like "ay" as in "neighbor" or "weigh. "
Auditory Encoding - Sounds • “What sobriety conceals, alcohol reveals”. • “If the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit, ” is easily remembered by jurors when a lawyer is fighting for his client’s innocence.
Encoding – Auditory Encoding • Songs are another great way to remember things – SCHOOL HOUSE ROCK !!
Encoding – More Strategies (Mnemonics) • Chunking – Organizing items into familiar, manageable units • Acronyms – Organizing items by creating words or sentences from the first letters of the words or information to be remembered
Chunking Numbers • Put your pencil down • Remember the numbers I saw verbally
Encoding –Chunking 1, 8, 1, 2, 1, 7, 7, 6, 1, 9, 4, 1, 1, 4, 9, 2
Encoding –Chunking • Much easier to encode the numbers into our memory if we “chunk” them: • Try to remember these numbers: 1812, 1776, 1941, 1492
Encoding –Chunking • Where they easier to remember? • They were the same numbers as before…
1, 8, 1, 2, 1, 7, 7, 6, 1, 9, 4, 1, 1, 4, 9, 2 • 1812, 1776, 1941, 1492
Encoding –Acronyms • Need to learn the names of North America’s five “Great Lakes”? –HOMES – Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior
Encoding – Effortful Processing Acronyms • National Basketball Association – NBA • Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus – SCUBA
Encoding – Effortful Processing Acronyms • Can’t remember how to spell Arithmetic? –A Rat In Toms House Might Eat Toms Ice Cream
– Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally mathematical order of operations: Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply and Divide before you Add and Subtract – How about the planets in order… • My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine Planets – • …only no more Pluto so how about My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nothing
Encoding with emotions • Flashbulb Memories – a clear memory of an emotionally significant moment or event – Where were you when 9/11 occurred, or when Kennedy was shot? – You clearly remember your first hit in Little League, your first kiss, the first day of high school, a funeral, a wedding…. . even though the memory may be many years old, you have a clear recollection.
