TOPIC 5: MEMORY,IMPROVING CONCENTRATION AND READING SYSTEM


Hello everyone! So today I'm going to share with you what is  the most important to improving our skills in this chapter. This topic is  memory, improving concentration and reading system aims to enable student to understand the basic process of memory and apply the memory skills in their learning.



MEMORY STRATEGIES 

- Memory strategies will help students in storing and retrieving the inform


THE REASONS HOW FORGETTING COULD OCCUR 
  • Don't pay attention to the information.
  • Don't understand the information 
  • Cramming 
  • Don't have good strategies 
  • Interference 
  • Test anxiety 


HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR MEMORY

1. Massed  practice vs spaced practice 
* massed practice (not good) - cramming, involved studying all the materials at one time. Do not have to understand, remember, and organize the reading materials (Reason: short term memory (STM) cannot sustain many information at one time)

* Space practice (good, recommended)- involves space time over some period of time for studying. Spaced practice or distributed practice allows time for the information to consolidate in the long-term memory. Taking breaks between learning sessions allow you to think and organize the informatrtion.

2. Break reading material down 
(again no cramming) for some period of time e,g 2 chapters per day, not all chapters a day before exam.

3. Rehearsal
Repeat the information many times e.g repeat a telephone number 10 times.

4. Elaboration strategies
👉Association *connect* each word or event with a person, places, thing, feeling , or situation .

👉 Acronyms/ catchwords : MAS- Malaysian Airlines System , UiTM- Universiti teknologi MARA 

👉 Acrostics/ catchphrases:
  1. Carnivores - animals eater 
  2. Herbivores - plant eaters
  3. Omnivores - animal and plant eater 
  4. Decomposes - eat decaying and organism 
the Catchphrase ; " Can Henry Omit Dents"

👉 Organizational strategies: mind maps






STRATEGIES FOR IMPROVING CONCENTRATION

  • CONCENTRATION 
  • CAUSES OF POOR CONCENTRATION 
- lack of attention 
- lack of interest
- lack of motivation 
- distraction from others
- uncomfortable environment 
- physiological matters
- psychological matters

 


  1. Use motivational and organization strategies
  2. Create a positive learning environment
