LONG-TERMMEMORY
When we deal with information, we do it in steps. Picture this as process of acquiring, retaining and using information in an activity called information processing.
Human Information Processing Model
The flowchart for this theory of memory indicates that all incoming information first passes through Sensory Memory (SM) before it enters Short Term Memory (STM). There it can be maintained by rehearsal and either successfully encoded for storage in Long Term Memory (LTM) or forgotten. In retrieval, the information passes from LTM back to STM, where it enters our consciousness.www.dushkin.com
Three Stages of Memory
What is the sum of 5 and 2 ?
Stimulation from the environment signals the brain to think.
Working memory has an interface role with the long term memory andthe stimulation from the environment.
Process the Question
Student must hear the question
Understand the question
• Process of elaboration stimulated
• Prior knowledge related to new experience.
• Long-Term Memory activated.
Declarative Knowledge“ What Is ?”
Procedural Knowledge“ How Do I ?”
“What Is ?” “How Do I?”
DDeclarative Knowledge
“What is 7 ?” “What is 5 ?” “What is a sum?”
LONG TERM MEMORY ACTIVATED
Procedural Knowledge
“What Is a Product ?”“How Do I Add ?”
Meta-Cognition is the mental management process that monitors thoughts and memory to decide if the answer is known.
Can I answer the question ?
Activate mental procedure to answer the question by using addition.
