affect the subsequent performance in these tasks. Specifically in the case of studying material in an educational context‚ building the scaffolding for strong retrieval pathways is imperative to proper learning and memorization of content. Manipulating the context of how one learns and is tested can be a powerful tool in strengthening the retrieval of studied material. Godden and Baddeley (1975) performed an experiment in which they manipulated the environmental context in which participants learned a

com/32798-how-are-memories-stored-in-the-brain.html Retrieval is just as the name suggests the brain’s ability to make a call back to the encoding stage and re fire the neutrons causing the memory to come flooding back. This is done through specific sets of cues‚ these include sensory like the sight of some where you played as a child or the smell of food that reminds you of a family member. These then cause involuntary memories to come back to you‚ the cues can be so small that they are not noticed them
