Memory Reliability, Effects of Trauma and Disease.
We all forget- sometimes for an instant, sometimes forever! Trying to remember someone’s name, needing to recall a formula during a maths test, or reminiscing about what a great time you had on holiday all involve different methods of retrieval.
This ability to retrieve information from our memory can be affected by many things. While research has found that there are ways we can improve our memory, it can also be damaged in ways that are beyond our control.
Study design dot point
- methods to retrieve information from memory or demonstrate the existence of information in memory including recall, recognition, relearning and reconstruction
- the effects of brain trauma on areas of the brain associated with memory and neurodegenerative diseases, including brain surgery, anterograde amnesia and Alzheimer’s disease
Sorry I am still away guys. Struck down with Gastro. I wanted to come in today to teach you, but not allowed!! Ms Wood is adorable and has agreed to take you for the double.
You need to ensure all the work from yesterday is completed, the 3 tasks on Models to explain memory. If you have any questions, ask Ms Wood. There is a test your knowledge (of last topic), start with this.
Today you are starting a new topic.
1) Go over the slide show with Ms Wood and take notes.
2) There is an activity on retrieval methods for you to complete too which I have attached, but will need to be photocopied for you to complete.
3) There is another activity at the end of the slide show for you to complete.
You will have your first logbook tasks on Friday of this week. I PROMISE I'll be back. I will email you all what the focus of those activities will be so you can study up. CHECK YOUR EMAILS TODAY!!!
Any further concerns email me.
