How we make memories

Lecture 12 min · Cognitive psychology

The idea, in a few words.

Memory involves taking information in, keeping it over time, and bringing it back when you need it. Attention gives new information a starting point; meaningful connections help it become easier to retrieve.

Keep these with you
  • Encoding gives new information meaning.
  • Storage keeps information available over time.
  • Retrieval brings a memory back into awareness.

Start with an idea. Make a note. See what sticks.
