Human Information Processing
As information is transferred through the various memory structures it undergoes a transformation.
Active learning is desired.
In the information-processing model ,attention is a process.
Selective attention is under the control of the learner.
Automatic attention processing information without effort.
Encoding-To encode means to convert a message into a code. In information-processing theory ,encoding is the process of converting a message from the environment to a cognitive code so that the information can be stored and later remember.
Encoding is one of “work” done in STS and from an instructional perspective it is the most important . Making codes construction cognitive representations is the primary business of the human cognitive mechanism.
Maintenance Rehearsal
Maintenance rehearsal keeps information available in STS by keeping the information “activated”.
It is also a type of encoding that could be called “brute force”. Repeating information doesn’t guarantee that information will be stored permanently, but it can lead to permanent storage.
Maintenance rehearsal or rote memorization is helpful or necessary in many situations both in or out of the classroom.
Elaborative Rehearsal-It is the type of encoding that relates new information to in formation already stored. This stimulus information becomes transform because the learner elaborates it in some way.
Elaboration requires the use of knowledge in LTS in order to integrate stimulus information with prior knowledge.
Retrieval-It is the process that transfers information from LTS to STS. Murdock defines retrieval as the utilization of stored information.
Encoding specificity is connection between encoding and retrieval and according to the principle of encoding specificity ,information present at the time of
