2. MEMORY Memory is involved in processing vast amounts of information . This information takes many different forms. Example: images , sounds or meaning.

3. Sensory Memory Sensory memory allows you to remember sensory information after the stimulation has ended. All other memories begin with the formation of sensory memories

4. Short-term Memory Research estimates that short-term memories only last for about 30 seconds . Short-term memory allows you to recall specific information about anything for a brief period . For example :Recalling Something

5. Working Memory Working memory is a type of memory that involves the immediate and small amount of information that a person actively uses as they perform cognitive tasks.

6. Long-term Memory We store a vast majority of our memories in our long-term memory. Any memory we can still recall after 30 seconds could classify as long-term memory. Example: Birthday dates , Address

7. Types of Long-term Memory Explicit long-term memories are memories we consciously and deliberately took time to form and recall. Implicit memories form unconsciously and might affect the way a person thinks and behaves.

8. STAGES OF MEMORY

9. ENCODING When information comes into our memory system (from sensory input), it needs to be changed into a form that the system can cope with, so that it can be stored. There are three main ways in which information can be encoded (changed): 1.Visual (picture ) 2. Acoustic (sound ) 3. Semantic (meaning)

10. Memory Storage This concerns the nature of memory stores, i.e., where the information is stored, how long the memory lasts for (duration), how much can be stored at any time (capacity) and what kind of information is held. There has been a significant amount of research regarding the differences between Short Term Memory (STM ) and Long Term Memory (LTM).

11. Memory Retrieval Retrieval is the process of accessing information from our memory . For example: If you are trying to remember the name of a person you met at a party, you will need to retrieve that information from your memory
