TYPES OF MEMORY
Sensory Memory
Sensory memory is a very brief (about three seconds) recall of a sensory experience, such as what we just saw or heard. Some compare sensory memory to a quick snapshot of what you just experienced that quickly disappears.
Short-Term Memory
Short-term memory is that brief period of time where you can recall information you were just exposed to. Short-term often encompasses anywhere from 30 seconds to a few days, depending on who is using the term.
Working Memory
Some researchers use the term working memory and distinguish it from short-term memory, though the two overlap.Working memory can be defined as the ability of our brains to keep a limited amount of information available long enough to use it. Working memory helps process thoughts and plans, as well as carries out ideas.
Long-Term Memory
Long-term memory encompasses memories that range from a few days to decades. In order for successful learning to take place, information has to move from the sensory or the short-term memory to the long-term memory.
Memory is the faculty of the brain by which data or information is encoded, stored, and retrieved when needed. It is the retention of information over time for the purpose of influencing future action.
Human memory involves the ability to both preserve and recover information we have learned or experienced. As we all know, however, this is not a flawless process. Sometimes we forget or misremember things. Sometimes things are not properly encoded in memory in the first place.
