Working Memory to Model and Term Paper

You will need make the student realized that focus goes together with memory retention. Based on "Thinking for Results" by Donna Wilson Ph.D. And Marcus Conyers, there are thinking models that we could use as diagnostic tool. This is the Cognitive Assets in Three Phases:

INPUT (Gather Sensory Information) - clear intention, practical optimism, initiative, systematic approach, using two or more source information, selective intention, making comparisons, understanding time, and understanding space.

PROCESS (Elaboration of Thoughts) - problem definition, classification, making connections, systematic planning, cognitive flexibility, using cues appropriately, making inferences, hypothesis thinking, working memory, making meaning and summarizing.

OUTPUT (Application of Words) - point-of-view, thoughtful behavior, effective expression, appropriate courage, finishing power and learning from experiences.

Working memory is an important PROCESS part in Cognitive Assets. This is the portion wherein we select which information we would like to remember. On taking exams, students would need to review all significant information related to the topic. The teacher would emphasize important points. Therefore, the students have to capture that data. They will need to remember that fact in every possible way. It is the duty of the lecturer to accentuate that detail and for the student to distinguish that.

Working memory is also applicable on daily basis.We tend to remember those experiences that we paid attention with. We remember those happy memories, those embarrassing experiences, and those events that broke our hearts. We remember the colorful curtain, the delicious viand that our mother cooked and the mellow music played by your sibling.

Lessons I Like The most important part of this lecture is the application portion. This is somewhat of human interests and most likely, the student will participate and open up. They will then realize what trigger their working memory to function. They will then know how to motivate themselves should they need to remember or recall a certain thing.

9. Summary

To sum up, the students will be able to finally realize that its all about mind setting. They will need to have the desire to remember, to focus and to eventually retain the information.
