Overview Of Long-Term Memory Chart

Now that you have had the chance to read about long-term memory, semantic memory, and schemas and scripts, and to look at some of the hyperlinks I included, I will now try to present, evaluate and show you how these theories are interrelated.
(Wish me luck and please provide me feedback on how well I am doing. I will take your comments serious and update my blog accordingly.)
First, let us have an overview of where I will be taking you:

1. First, I will discuss the encoding process, specifically, the Levels of Processing Approach and the Self-Reference Effect.
2. Next, I will present the Encoding Specificity Principle.
3. From here, I will discuss the Retrieval process as related to implicit and explicit memory tasks.
4. I will include a discussion of how emotions and mood influence our memory.
5. The discussion will then turn to semantic memory and the four approaches to semantic memory.
6. At this point, I will then discuss schemas and scripts and their influence on memory.
7. Finally, I will relate personal examples to demonstrate my understanding of the theories and how they influence my choices as a teacher.
Again, I hope to include more pictures and hyperlinks as I go along.

  • Sounds a good plan.
    Try not to get too technical and integrate well your personal reflection and examples. I am looking for understanding of the theory not just copy and paste the information you might find on the web or books, and articles.
    Also remember to add hyperlinks to useful web sites and use also journal articles on the topic.
