Unit 4: Chapter 7 Memory
Warm Up 03/14 • Do you remember what you had for breakfast? • Do you remember what you had for breakfast 2 weeks ago? • Explain why these two answers might differ.
Fire and Ice Robert Frost Some say the world will end in fire, Some say ice. From what I’ve tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice.
Acquainted with the Night - Robert Frost I have been one acquainted with the night. I have walked out in rain -- and back in rain. I have outwalked the furthest city light. I have looked down the saddest city lane. I have passed by the watchman on his beat And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain. I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet When far away an interrupted cry Came over houses from another street, But not to call me back or say good-bye; And further still at an unearthly height, A luminary clock against the sky Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right. I have been one acquainted with the night.
Three Kinds of Memory • Memory – indication that learning has persisted over time • Three kinds of Memory • Episodic • Semantic • Implicit
Three Kinds of Memory • Episodic • Memory of events • Flashbulb memory – vivid memories where you generally remember exactly what happened like a photo • The day JFK was shot • September 11, 2001
Three Kinds of Memory • Semantic • Information that does not have a specific time stamp • The alphabet • George Washington • Explicit Memory – specific information
Three Kinds of Memory • Implicit • Skills or procedures • Riding a bicycle • Driving • Not likely to be forgotten
Processing your memories • 3 processes of memory • Encoding • Storage • Retrieval
Encoding • Putting information into form easily stored • Visual – mental pictures • Acoustic – stores info as sequence of sounds • Semantic – trying to make sense of the info • Meaningful codes
Storage • Maintenance of encoded info over time • Maintenance rehearsal – repeating info many times to keep from forgetting • Elaborative rehearsal – relating new info to things you already know • Organizational systems – meaningful grouping of info • Can have errors
Retrieval • Recalling stored info • Context-dependent memory - situation reminds you • State-dependent memory – mood the memory was encoded in was recreated
Chapter 7 Vocab • memory • episodic memory • flashbulb memory • semantic memory • explicit memory • implicit memory • encoding • storage • maintenance & elaborative rehearsal • schemas • recognition • recall • anterograde amnesia • state- and context-dependent memories • sensory memory • iconic memory • eidetic memory • echoic memory • primacy & recency effect • chunking • interference • long-term memory • relearning • decay • infantile amnesia • retrograde amnesia
Memory Mural/Collage • Either draw or cut out from magazines things that represent some of your most powerful memories. • They can be happy or less than • you are not presenting these, but you do have to explain what you included on the back of the mural/collage • label as episodic, implicit, semantic
Warm Up 03/17 • Describe an episodic memory you have. • Would this be considered a flashbulb memory?
Warm - Up Review 03/18 • How can we determine cause-and-effect relationships? (correlations, surveys, etc.) • Which psychological perspectives deals primarily with groups of people? (ethnic groups) • What type of psychologists studies how people change over their lifetimes?
Activity • Watch TED Memory • Answer the following questions: • What is a memory Palace? • How is it used to improve memory? • How could you use this technique in your life?
Stages of Memory • 3 stages of Memory • Sensory • Short-term • Long-term
Sensory Memory • Initial recording of info • Based the senses and decays quickly • Iconic memory – extremely short snapshots of events • Eidetic imagery - longer iconic memory • Echoic memory – sounds last longer in the sensory memory
Short-term Memory • Working memory • Longer than sensory memory • Still fades within minutes • Primacy Effect – remembering the first items of a list better • Recency Effect – being able to better remember the last few items of a list • Chunking – long lists of data into smaller units • Interference – new info takes the place of what is already there
Long-term Memory • Stored for long periods of time • Less likely to decay • Schemas – organization of information into knowledge
Are you forgetting something? • Amnesia • infantile, anterograde, and retrograde • Improving Memory • make it meaningful to you! • mnemonic device - ex. Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally • Confabulation – fabricated memories that you believe are real memories
Let me Tell you a story • Once upon a time…
Multiple intelligences • Verbal/linguistic • visual/spatial • musical • logical/mathematical • interpersonal • naturalistic • body/kinesthetic • intrapersonal
Please Keep in Mind... • You may also take this time to pick groups. • We will be creating a children’s book for the next project. • This will be based on language development. • Please determine the following: • Age group • aspect of language you will be informing...look in the book
Warm up 1. What is a memory of an event? 2. What is a memory of a skill? 3. What is a memory of information?
Notebook Check 1. Warm ups 2. memory vocab 3. Quizzes from operant conditioning (don’t worry about actual grade just make sure it is there)
