Psychology 120: Students are going to use this period to study for the test tomorrow. The list of words are on the teacher’s page with their definitions. The task today is simple, the students have been looking at memory and how they learn. They are to develop a study guide based on the following:

 

·         Their multiple intelligence- so if they scored high in 1-2 areas there should be evidence of a plan to study in that way. For example if they are visual special they could draw a chart, or diagram or picture that would help them with recalling the terms.

 

·         Secondly their study plan should include strategies for long term memory. For example one strategy would be to chunk up information into small bites, or a memory palace, or making a game out of the material.

 

·         Finally their plan should include evidence that the materials makes sense. This is the key for long term memory storage. So tell them to share a story, example or put it into their own words to show knowledge of the material.

 

·         This plan is due tomorrow when they write their test.
