*Learning Pyramid
There are various methods a learner can engage in which will allow them to learn information at various percentages of retention.
*types of MEMORY:
1)SENSORY MEMORY
-allows individuals to retain impressions of sensory information after the original stimulus has ceased.
2)SHORT-TERM MEMORY
-a small amount of information in mind in an active,readily available state for a short period of time.
3)LONG-TERM MEMORY
-for the storage of information for an extended period of time
*why do we forget easily?
1)distraction from all aspects
2)lack of focus
3)time factor
- REPETITION and REHEARSAL is very important-
MEMORY STRATEGIES:

*how to improve strategies???
1)MASSED PRACTICE
-compressed all works in one time
-do not have enough time to understand
-last minute study
2)SPACED PRACTICE
-involves space time over some period of time for learning
-enough time to understand
-very recommendable
3)REHEARSAL STRATEGIES
-studying material
-involves repetition
-for example,past year questions
4)ELABORATION STRATEGIES
-imagery = visualize th image of the information needed
-acronyms = an abbreviation formed from the initial lettersof other words and pronounced as a word
-acrostics = a poem,word puzzle,or other composition in which certain letters in each line form a word or words.
-mnemonics = a system such as letters ,ideas or associations which assists in remembering something.
*CAUSE of poor concentration:
-lack of attention
