The Brain, Learning, and Memory Key: AWL to Study, Low-frequency Vocabulary What is the connection between the brain, learning, and memory? Learning and Memory Learning modification in behavior due to an increase in knowledge or skills Memory ability to recall information and experiences How have the skills and knowledge you’ve acquired modified your behavior? Learning and Memory Linked Learning relies on memory. Learning requires the storage and retrieval of information. Memory relies on learning. An individual’s established knowledge base provides a structure of past learning. Incoming data attaches to that structure though association. Explain how you have learned something by associating it with what you already knew. Breakthroughs in Brain Research Use brain imagining techniques to clarify the process of memory and learning. to provide educators and students with academic study skill strategies. How do you think brain imaging techniques might clarify the processes of learning and memory? Three Stages of Memory Sensory, short-term, and long-term memory Sensory memory visual, auditory, and olfactory information transfers to short-term memory Short-term memory stores seven single or chunked items for 30 seconds without repetition solves problems through reasoning process (example: organizing facts into a coherent essay) What is the difference between sensory memory and short-term memory? The ability to transfer information from short- to long-term memory is relevant to the learning process. People use attention, repetition, and association with past learning to encode information. Neurologically, encoding happens when information is repeatedly processed in the hippocampus. Long-term Memory How do you encode information into long-term memory? Relationship of incoming data to pre-existing mental frameworks The more associations made with established learning, the better new information is retained. Memories are
