Information Processing

Last week we discussed about Information Processing Theory there are three major components of information processing the Sensory registers, Short-term or working memory and Long-term memory.
Short-term memory holds the limited amount of information paid attention to while the long-term memory keeps information for long period of time and integrates it through rehearsal. We also tackle the nine basic concepts in cognitive theories of learning the Perception, Storage, Encoding, Rehearsal, Dual-coding, Episodic memory, Semantic memory and the Procedure memory. Information processing theory also applied in classroom teaching which gives us the idea on how we implememt the teaching strategies.
 There are seven types of learning according to level of skills the signal learning, stimulus response learning, motor chains learning, discriminating learning, concept learning, role learning and the problem solving..
