You have probably noticed in your educational career that some people are very good at remembering facts and therefore do well at tests that require memorization. Other students, on the other hand, struggle with tests that require memorization. To understand how memory works, this exercise will ask you to trace the memory system – from the stimuli to long-term memory.
Use your text book and research from the Internet to learn the process of memory – from beginning to end. Your description should include the following:
- Identification and description of each step in the human memory model. As you describe these steps, use an example to illustrate the process.
- Discussion of factors that enhance or impede information flow in each step of the process
- Explanation of proactive and retroactive interference and how you might counteract their effects while studying in order to facilitate maximum retention via long-term memory
- Explanation of other kinds of forgetting and a discussion of strategies that can improve memory consolidation and retrieval
This assignment will also be assessed using additional criteria provided here.
Submit this in the form of a 2 -3 page paper. You can use illustrations to demonstrate the process. Be sure to document your references using the APA format

We know the object is still somewhere in our house, that it hasn’t disappeared or ceased to exist, even though we look everywhere for it.
 Individuals forget by abandoning memories. This is likely to be temporary, because one day, it may come to mind again when it is least expected or through an association with a present situation. The inability to retrieve a memory is one of the most common causes of forgetting. At times information can be lost when it was not encoded properly into long term memory. Some memories may be suppressed because they were of negative experiences that were traumatic or disturbing. Individuals who do this consciously try to forget these memories.Others may forget experiences unconsciously through repression.
