  1. Educational Psychology:Theory and PracticeChapter 6 Information Processing and Cognitive Theories of Learning

  2. The Memory System Sensory Register Short Term (Working) Long Term ?

  3. Information Processing: Sensory Register • Perception • Very Brief • Large Capacity • Remembering: Attention • Forgetting: Decay • Sperling Chart

  4. Pause Here for Sensory Register Demonstration

  5. Information Processing: Sensory Register DemonstrationReview • Large Capacity • Very Brief • Decays Quickly

  6. Sensory Memory Sensory Input Attention Forgetting: Decay

  7. Information Processing:Short-Term or Working Memory • Smaller Capacity (5-9 Items) • Contains What You Are Thinking Now • Remembering: Rehearsal • Forgetting: Displacement (Demonstrate) • Remembering II: Making Better Use of Short-Term Memory

  8. Pause Here for Short-Term Memory Demonstration

  9. Information Processing:Short-Term or Working MemoryDemonstration Review • Capacity (5-9 Items) • Information That Has Meaning is Easier to Remember • Unfamiliar Information is Easily Displaced • We Can Make Better Use of Short-Term Memory by Utilizing Pre-Existing Schemes

  10. Rehearsal Short-Term Memory Sensory Memory Sensory Input Attention Forgetting: Decay Forgetting: Displacement

  11. Information Processing: Long-Term Memory • Capacity May Be Unlimited • Remembering: Schemes (Connections) • Forgetting: Retrieval Failure

  12. Rehearsal Long-Term Memory Retrieval Short-Term Memory Sensory Memory Sensory Input Attention Storage Forgetting: Retrieval Failure Forgetting: Decay Forgetting: Displacement

  13. Information Processing: Long-Term Memory • Episodic Memory • Semantic Memory • Procedural Memory

  14. Information Processing: Factors That Impair Long-Term • Retroactive Inhibition (Interference) • Proactive Inhibition (Interference)

  15. Information Processing: Factors That Impact Long-Term Memory • Dual Coding • Retroactive Facilitation • Proactive Facilitation • Serial Position Effects • Primacy Effect • Recency Effect • Connections: Chunking or Categories • Levels of Processing Theory

  16. Verbal Learning • Paired Associate • Free Recall • Serial Learning

  17. Strategies for Remembering: Mnemonic Devices • Paired Associate Learning • Imagery (See Next Slide)

  18. Strategies for Remembering: Mnemonic Devices • Paired Associate Learning • Imagery • Free Recall Learning • Organization • Serial Learning • Loci • Pegword

  19. Pegwords • Six = Sticks • Seven = Heaven • Eight = Gate • Nine = Vine (Line) • Ten = Hen • One = Bun • Two = Shoe • Three = Tree • Four = Door • Five = Hive

  20. Other Memory Strategies: • Rhyming • Initial Letter

  21. What is Meaningful Learning? Rote Learning (Memorization of Facts) is Sometimes Necessary. However, Teachers and Students Can Work to Make Learning More Meaningful. 4x7=28 4x8=32 4x9=?

  22. Meaningful Information • Inert Vs. Meaningful Knowledge • Schema Theory
