extensions [] Lisa McKee I found this while looking for interesting things to add. This is a wikihow and has incredible tips for improving your memory. What I really like is that it provides suggestions, tips, and a video to help improve your memory. It seems that all people struggle with memory during their lives. I have students who cannot remember their books, homework, and pencil. There are days that I forget things also and always blame age. This wikihow can show us ways to improve our memory as well as exercise our brains. [] This website offers memory exercises to help improve our memory. Visualization, puzzles, games, and even visiting museums can help us to keep our brains active and our memory working.

I came across this web page about Memory it has alot of information. Memory is something I have always struggled with. This website has helped me better understand what is going on inside my cognitive architecture.

Video on Memory Our memory begins at birth and grows from there. Our memory stores our experiences that make up our life. It lets us have a past, future, and communicate thru laungauge. The video show about when children begin to understand that they are their own seperate person and can remember an experience or event that they were show. There are three videos in this series. John has little to no memory recall due to being born premature. It is interesting learning about how he functions on a daily basis. I struggle with memory and becauseof it I make many list and really like my structure and routine.I couldn't imagine what we goes through on a daily basis.

SOI is a program in our school district. SOI stands for structure of the intellect. At schools the students particiapte in SOI on a weekly or daily basis. One of the areas we work on is memory. In kindergarten the students learn a series of picture gliffs. The students eventually are required to not only remember what each picture is but also what it looks like. This video talks about how SOI has helped their children in school. I spent a week earlier this year in SOI training. I think it is amazing concept I just need to see more results.

The above site is a model of concept sorting vocabulary. Essentially,concept sorting is grouping like vocabulary words into different classifications. This mode of teaching is slightly analogous to the concept forming we did in class. Instead of defining one concept, the model broadens the scope and focuses on group classifications. Skip to 1:30 to see how the teacher sorts the vocabulary by classification.

This site is an in depth investigation into what journalism calls the 4 W's (and one H) of concepts. If you ever are having trouble expressing a concept, the site has some interesting models of teaching.

1) This is a great National Geographic Magazine article on memory. It includes memory games, an interactive map of the brain, photographs, and the article itself. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2007/11/memory/foer-text/1

2) This NOVA documentary entitled //How Memory Works// examines the brain of HM. Born in 1922, this famous psychology patient suffered from epilepsy. In order to relieve his epileptic symptoms, doctors removed substantial parts of his hippocampus. These procedures successfully treated his seizures but had disastrous effects on his memory, specifically his short-term memory. However, the research done on HM led scientists to discover that there are actually different kinds of memory that work in cohesion with different parts of the brain. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/body/how-memory-works.html#

This is a clip of a longer video about a man with amnesia. I watched the video in high school, and it always fascinated me. Clive Wearing contracted a virus which ended up damaging his hippocampus, which has prevented him from turning short-term memories into long-term ones. His procedural memory was not affected, so he can still play the piano and conduct an orchestra, but he has no idea as to how he knows how to do it. His memory only lasts about 7-30 seconds.

This is the flip side of memory; a women who cannot forget anything. Many of her memories are episodic, and she can recall everything in her life. Doctors can study her brain to see just how she can retain a lifetime of information, and how that can help others, such as Alzheimer's patients.

[]

This is an article about an electronic gun that replays what a person says milliseconds later, which confuses their brain enough to cause them to stutter and stop speaking. The delayed auditory feedback affects cognitive processes in the brain.

[]

This is a short clip about research that has been done on the Tip of the Tongue phenomenon. It turns out that you are better off forgetting about the word than spending time struggling to remember it.

[]

This is also about the Tip of the Tongue phenomenon, and explains that even signers can get get "tip of the finger phenomenon". It suggests that the more infrequently we use a word, the more likely it is to come up on the tip of our tongues.
