Stages in Learning

 

Hello people! Welcome back!

             So last week I spoke about the environmental constraints in learning and I'm really glad at the feedback I got thank you everyone. So today! I've had plenty of curiosity so one time I was wondering how I find it easy to remember some things and struggle with others, like how exactly does the information I receive get to stay? Who does the selection of what stays and what does not, why do I study something and get to the exam hall to struggle with remembering exactly what I studied? Well, I always seek an answer to my curiosity, and trust me I always find

           So I learned there are 3 stages in learning, from the stage of seeing raw data to absorbing it, processing it, storing it all up, and then bringing it out again when needed. The three stages are;

Encoding

Storage

Retrieval

 This will be leading me to the next subject I will be discussing which is Memory. I have watched people have a shallow understanding of memory instead of taking the time to understand its complexities. Imagine how horrible it will be if you have to learn simple tasks like eating, dressing up, and talking every time you have to do them. 

Encoding is the first step more likened to a gateway into your memory. Encoding happens when you perceive sensory input from the environment through any of your sense organs and then the brain translates it into memorable information ready to be stored. So as discussed earlier, all you do in the classroom is perceive sensory inputs and your brain transmits them into something memorable. What happens during encoding is that information enters into our memory;

 What happens to the informations perceived?

See you in the next episode.
