Memory,learning and improving concentration:)

Human have 5 major sense:

  • Touch (Hands)
  • Hear(Ear)
  • Smell(Nose)
  • Taste(Tongue)
  • Sight(eyes)

Sense is one thing we should grateful for,every human have sense,brain will trace any pulse from sense.Everything we touch,smell,heard,taste and look will affect our brain.Its difficult to person who not have or lost one of a sense.Just imagine your life without taste?

Sensory memory is the ability that brain can retain memory in shortest terms when the original stimuli ended.Input will transfer to sensory memory,after get the input,sensory memory will transfer input to short term memory,some of memory will failed to transferred it called as lost memory.Short term memory also known as.Before i forgot sensory memory received from our 5 sense touch,smell,sight,hear,taste.

The information stored in SM, when relevant, can be extracted by Short-Term Memory to be processed by Working Memory (WM). Normally, STM can store any information for roughly 30 seconds, which is then possessed, manipulated, and controlled by the working memory. Information from STM can then be transferred into Long-Term Memory by various methods such as Rehearsal and Chunking, where memory can be stored for even a life time.

In the memory model devised by Atkinson and Shiffrin, transfer of SM to STM is the first step. (https://www.psychestudy.com/cognitive/memory/sensory)

From the picture above,we can see the kind of ways that make us remember the most.

  • Teach others is the big ways to remember because when we teach other we are taught ourselves and at the same times we will improve our solving skill.I remember one quotes, “When we give one sweets,we lost one sweets,but if we share one knowledge we gain more knowledge” i will stick with this quotes for remind me always not to be greedy and stingy.
    Practice by doing its also important because practice make perfect,same goes to mathematics we need to often do an exercise to solve problem and to sharp our skill.From practice we can remember in a long term if we consistence on doing exercise.
    Discussion group is important,we can close our relationship on group while get the knowledge by switch every idea on each other.it(memory) will stay longer if we insert a joke or any attractive things that can make us feel comfort and happy to study
    Demonstration,is one of the best ways for kineasthetic learner . If you are not a kineasthetic learner,demonstration is not your major skill so it only retain 30% in our memory,it able to retain 60% if demonstration is doing in every week.
    Audio/Visual is place on the third floor from top its because if we learn only from audio and visual without taking notes its nothing.
    Reading also not give us remember in a long time,i remember when im at secondary school i use to reading a night before exam and its retain only when im in exam hall,once i go out from there,what i reading last night dissapear like the dust.
    Lecture is only contain 5%.Its because we re human are not able to remember all the things in one time,that is why we need to be active in class,not understand in class is a really big deal of yours.Dont let yourself behind others.Ask lecturer if you not understand certain things.

MEMORY STRATEGY

  • Do revision
  • Read it out loud to sharpen the memory
  • Form a study group
  • Keep asking for the things you not clear about.
  • Keep doing exercise
  • Strategies to improve concentration

    1. Keep asking question when in class to avoid sleepy.
      Take important notes,always prepared pen and notebook
      Avoid talking while lecturer give a talk
      Create the positive vibes when learning
      Match your major learning skill,For example, for kineasthetic learner keep your body active when you in class.

    What is SQ3R

    SQ3R is a memory method named it is contain five steps:

    • Survey
    • Question
    • Read
    • Recite
    • Review
  • I will explain each steps,
    1. Survey the contain and chapter.This include the title,heading and subheading.Do summary to make sure you understand.
      Create a Question after do survey.Make everything turn to question.Question on what you know based on the material you read.
      Begin you Reading and find the answer to the question you come out earlier.Slow down and read repeatly during difficult passage/words.It help you understand and remember better
      Recite what you reading.Do some flip through after mevery class.Summarize what you have read
      When you done it all out.Review the question and answer .Do a flip through again to make you remember better in a long terms.
