Description

Teaching to the brain's strengths is easier once you understand how the human brain acquires, retains, and retrieves information. This session will focus on how information is encoded and stored in the brain, and how that information is retrieved (or "forgotten").Participants will learn the basics of the different types of memory systems, theories of memory consolidation and forgetting, etc. A follow-up session on Friday, 8/13 at 10 am will describe teaching techniques that leverage the neuroscience of learning.
