Memory and Improvement
Retrieving information that was learned at a previous time (dare I hope...)
what is recall
"Thinking of one's thinking" - the knowledge and regulation of one's own cognitive process
What is Metacognition
Intelligence is made of two components
What is Spearman’s Two-Factor Theory
having uniform procedures and graded the same way for everyone. Scores should form a normal curve.
What is standardized
I hit my head and can no longer form new memories
What is anterograde amnesia
all the mental activities associated with thinking, knowing, remembering and communicating
what is cognition
What we are doing now, i.e., learning something more quickly the 2nd time around
what is relearning
Semantically encoded information that is stored. Unlimited capacity.
What is Long Term Memory
There are 8 different forms of intelligence, with a possible 9th, that all can work separately.
What is Gardner’s Multiple intelligence Theory
When tests yield the same results every time.
What is reliable
The famous graph that demonstrates that forgetting is initially rapid but then levels off with time
What is the Ebbinghaus' forgetting curve
On the AP exam, students will be asked to use this kind of thinking to discern the correct answer in MCQs
what is convergent thinking
Identifying items that were previously learned (I am so confident in your ability to do this!)_
What is recognition
Working memory- Active processing of incoming auditory and visual-spatial stimulus. Brief storage of memory up to 30 second
What is short term memory.
There are three different intelligences that help you throughout daily life.
What is Robert Sternberg’s Triarchic Theory
I am sorry Mr. Crump I bumped my head and can no longer recall any of the material from our class
what is retrograde amnesia
a defined set of step-by-step procedures that provides the correct answer to a particular problem.
What is an algorithm
Organizing items into familiar, manageable units-- which often occurs automatically
what is chunking
Automatically Encoded
What is Implicit Memory
Which theory had to do with a "G" factor
What is Spearman’s Two-Factor Theory
I am sorry, Mr. Crump, I just have learned so much that I can't recall any new information
what is proactive interference
On the FRQ portion of the AP exam, students will have more of an opportunity to be creative problem-solvers with this kind of thinking
What is divergent thinking
Your memory palace was an example of this
what are mnemonics
A type of long term memory involved in performing a skill/activity
What is Prospective Memory
Intra-Personal, interpersonal, linguistic, and musical are all examples from what theory
What is Gardner’s Multiple intelligence Theory
Wow, Mr. Crump, our most recent unit was so fascinating that I cannot recall anything from the previous units
what is retroactive interference
When you don't have the opportunity or need to utilize a methodical, rule-driven problems-solving strategy-- an algorithm-- you might use this thinking strategy instead
what is a heuristic (representative or availability)
