  1. DO NOW • You are driving your car and talking at the same time. You come across a cyclist who is wobbling all over the road. You stop talking and concentrate on your driving. • Which part of the working memory model helps to explain this scenario?

  2. DO NOW How could this scenario be used in the working memory model essay? Can you think of a similar scenario whereby attention is directed and prioritised? • You are driving your car and talking at the same time. You come across a cyclist who is wobbling all over the road. You stop talking and concentrate on your driving. • Which part of the working memory model helps to explain this scenario? • The CENTRAL EXECUTIVE controls and directs attention in instances such as these. It gives priorities to particular activities such as those described above.

  3. Learning Objective: to understand and apply improvements to essay writing • ALL will be able to explain applications of the WMM • MOST will make improvements to their working memory model essay so that it exceeds their target grade • SOME will analyse a mark scheme to produce a ‘recipe for success’ for a LTM essay

  4. Making improvements to our essays... • You are acting upon your target that you have been set for your essay! • Remember the aim is to improve your essay so that it at least on your target grade

  5. Learning Objective: to understand and apply improvements to essay writing • ALL will be able to explain applications of the WMM • MOST will make improvements to their working memory model essay so that it exceeds their target grade • SOME will analyse a mark scheme to produce a ‘recipe for success’ for a LTM essay

  6. LTM: Re-cap • Types of LTM – declarative (episodic, autobiographical, experimental, flashbulb and examples of each) vs non-declarative (procedural) • Case study evidence – Clive Wearing and HM and how they support the existence of different types of LTM • Conway – flashbulb memory, Bower – hierarchical organisation • Interactivity of the memory stores

  7. Interactivity: all of the different types of LTM working together A02 ALERT= Interactivity: although the memory systems are considered largely independent lots of tasks require interaction of the stores • E.g. Playing tennis requires procedural memory (how to play), semantic memory (knowing the rules) and may even involve episodic memory (remembering previous games against this opponent) • TASK: can you think of your own example where all of the different types of memory are being used together?

  8. Planning the LTM essay: re-visiting how to do the recipe for success using a previous example... • It doesn’t have to be complex and it’s not about copying out the mark scheme, it’s about using it as a tool to help you! • E.g. AO1 Up to 5 marks for description with up to 3 marks for definition/description of features ofthe model: a central executive with series of subsystems which are named/described: articulatory loop/articulatory control system/‘inner voice’; primary acoustic/phonological store/‘inner ear’; visuo-spatial sketchpad/scratchpad/‘inner eye’; phonological loop; limited capacity; episodic buffer; limited/short duration/ short term memory. • Credit description of relevant studies up to 2 marks. • Describe 3 parts of model: central exec, phono loop, visuo-spatial sketchpad • Include Logie and Paulesu (1 mark each)

  9. Describe the different types of LTM. Evaluate research methodology used to support the different types (10 marks) • What would our recipe for success look like for this question (an essay question has NEVER been asked on the types of LTM before) • 5 A01 marks: describing the different types of LTM, with examples of each (up to 4 marks), a research study (1 mark) • 5 A02 marks: research evidence to support / go against with evaluation of the research (HM – case study, Bower – longitudinal study, opportunity sample, Bower – lab experiment, lack of ecological validity)

  10. HOMEWORK: due 1 week today • Describe the different types of LTM. Evaluate research methodology used to support the different types (10 marks) • Your recipe for success must be submitted as part of your essay!
