THE MEMORY MODEL: The Memory Model is a term used to describe the way in which the human brain works to retrieve memories; it proposes that the Human Memory is made up of 3 components. The first of these is the sensory buffer, where the basic environmental sensory information is initially registered, followed by the Short-Term, or “working” memory, where they reside until rehearsed, a final practice that enters them into the long term memory. If the memory isn’t rehearsed, it ceases to exist.
