Variations in how we can retrieve information need to be considered when evaluating effectiveness of learning. The best way to study depends on type of memory test many different ways to study, however need to make sure it"s the best way. What"s the best way to study how to ride a bicycle: practice riding a bicycle(cid:0) t h is is the best way, watch other people ride a bicycle, read a book about riding a bicycle. Memory connections will be useful to the extent that you are given the correct cue (i. e. , starting point) What we can retrieve will depend on how we processed information during acquisition/studying.
