UNDERSTANDING MEMORY  PROCESSES AND STRATEGIES GET TO KNOW YOUR BRAIN

THE BRAIN TRANSMITTED DATA MESSAGES WITH A SPEED OF 250KM PER HOUR.   THE BRAIN CAN PRODUCE 25WATTS OF ELECTRIC POWER. IT’S ENOUGH TO TURN BULBS ON.   THE RIGHT BRAIN  CAPASITY IS 100 TIMES THE LEFT BRAIN       HUMAN USES 3%, 97% ARE STORED IN THE RIGHT BRAIN

ACTIVITY 1

CLAP HANDS FOR ONCE AND GRASP BOTH HANDS. THEN, SEE WHICH THUMBS ARE LOCATED ABOVE. SHOWS THAT MY LEFT THUMB IS ABOVE.I AM MORE TO RIGHT HEMISPHERE.

OUR BRAIN HAS TWO PARTS OF THE LEFT
 AND RIGHT HEMISPHERES.WHICH ON OF US?

                                                                                                                                                                   

ACTIVITY 2

YELLOW RED BLUE BROWN WHITE PINK GREEN

•     LEFT BRAIN TRYING TO READ THE COLOUR BUT OUR RIGHT BRAIN WILL STILL READ THE WRITING

MEMORY VS BRAIN

• MEMORY ; THE ABILITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL TO STORE AND REMEMBER INFORMATION (COMPUTER SOFTWARE)  
• BRAIN; IS AN ORGAN (COMPUTER HARDWARE)

BRAIN AND MEMORY RELEVANCE

• ANALOGY LIKE A COMPUTER
• ENCORDING/INPUT (COMPUTER- KEYBOARD, CAMERA; HUMAN – THE 5 SENSES; EARS, MOUTH, NOSE, SKIN, EYES)
• STORAGE(COMPUTER- HARD DISK.THUMB DRIVE; HUMAN – 3 TYPES OF MEMORY – SM, STM, LTM)
• RETRIEVAL/OUTPUT (COMPUTER- SCREEN, PRINTER; HUMAN – WRITING,TALKING)

MEMORY

     o   DIVIDED INTO THREE TYPES: SENSORY MEMORY (SM), SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM) , LONG-TERM MEMORY (LTM).

    

     o   SHORT-TERM MEMORY (STM);

•     THE PROCESS ALLOWS THE INFO TO BE RECEIVED AND STORED WITHIN A SHORT TIME BETWEEN 30 SECONDS TO 24 HOURS.
•      MEMORY OF THE SENSORY(RECEIVED THROUGH FIVE SENSES).
•      SOME OF THE INFORMATION IN THE STM WILL ENTER THE LTM IF GIVEN FOCUS AND REPITITION.

     o   LONG-TERM MEMORY (LTM);

è EVERY INFORMATION STORED IN THIS SYSTEM IS PERMANENT BUT DEPENDS ON THE PERSON’S ABILITY TO “RECALL” THE INFORMATION.

RECALL

         o   THE WEAKNESS TO RECALL IS ONE WORD “FORGET”.

         o   IF YOU WANT TO BE A GENIUS, BRAIN POTENTIALS NEED TO STRENGTHENED BY STIMULATING, TRAINING AND BRAIN-BOOSTING.

MEMORY STRATEGIES

• MNEMONICS
• A METHOD TO REMEMBER USING THINGS WE LIKE OR THE ENVIRONMENT
• MAKE IT FUNNY
• TWO TYPES; ACRONYMS AND RHYTHMS
• EXAMPLES OF MNEMONICS; RAINBOW COLOURS

MICHAEL JACKSON KILL HIS BROTHER IN UNIVERSITY

M- merah, J- jingga, K- kuning, H-hijau, B-biru, I-indigo, U-ungu

ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGIES

•  ORGANIZE THE MATERIALS FOR EXAMPLE ANIMALS CAN BE DIVIDED INTO 3 TYPES WHICH ARE MAMMALS, REPTILES, AMPHIBIANS.
• IMAGERY – VISUALIZE THE IMAGE OF THE INFORMATION NEEDED.       

CAUSES OF POOR CONCENTRATION

1.      LACK OF ATTENTION

2.      LACK OF INTEREST

3.      LACK OF MOTIVATION

4.      DISTRACTION FROM OTHERS

5.      UNCOMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT

6.      PHYSIOLOGICAL MATTERS- ILLNESS,TIREDNESS

7.      PSYCHOLOGICAL MATTERS- PERSONAL PROBLEMS,WORRIES
