PSY E111 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Neuroglia, Overlearning, Psy
Document Summary
Study habits that aid memory memory is semantically organized add more info cumulative rehearsal. It is not sufficient to learn everything at once, learn little chunks perfectly then. Organization: the use of sub-headings and heading are important because our long-term. Elaborative rehearsal will help you to recall your information better. Add examples, make connections between different parts of the: maintenance rehearsal vs. elaborative rehearsal information, distributed vs. massed practice. Distributed practice: little bits of information being learnt at a time aka accumulative rehearsal. Massed practicing: cramming your material in a short period of time. By the time you get to the exam, most of the information will get lost. Extra: the nervous system contains billions of neurons. Be careful not to confuse neurons and nerves. Research has shown that glial cells play an important role in learning and memory formation. messed is pass on to the axon neurons by grabbing onto the neurotransmitters.
