Kinds of Memories

Being a successful teacher makes you work on improving many aspects and pushes you to exert more effort to make learning last as longer as possible in students' mind. One main part that falls here is knowing about students' memories and relating that to their age. For instance, knowing that my KG students can't be attentive for a long period of time, I divide the lesson into chunks to help them better understand and retrieve the information easier. Moreover, with older learners, it's very helpful to teach them the strategies that would aid them in learning the new knowledge and remembering it easily. One effective strategy could be acronyms which leads to more enduring learning. To sum up, making teaching successful requires making learning successful as well through planning how to teach and how to help students retain what they have learnt forever.

  2. this is absolutely true especially varying your strategies according to the learners' age! It's very important to understand the students and their needs as well.

  3. Teaching is a job that requires lots of keeping up with everything related to education. Every now and then, researchers add new ideas and ways that brighten our knowledge and some times they add lots of changes to what we apply with our students.
    So I strongly agree with you; teachers are always in need for learning and training so we can help our students as much as we can.

  4. you are right!
    All teachers should know that the students have seven spots to be stored in their memory, so they have to reduce the use of these spots as possible as they can in order to keep the information in students' mind
