How might your knowledge of the memory processes guide your instructional decisions?
I somewhat addressed how I would adjust my instruction based on what I have learned about memory processes in my last post. One thing that I would make a priority in my instruction is to present the connection between the material and the real world. I would also try to relate the new material to topics we have covered in the past or that they might have learned in previous grades. I will also present the same material in different ways so that they learn it over time, rather than learning it one day and being tested on it a few days later. I will definitely utilize mnemonics in my instruction and teach useful mnemonics to my students. Hopefully by teaching them some mnemonics, they will be able to come up with their own to help them remember important information.
