TOPIC 5 :
MEMORY, LEARNING AND IMPROVING CONCENTRATION.



12 July 2107, Topic 5, Lecturer Shamsinar. High Expectation that I already planted it in myself for this another class of study skills and it happened!!!I am so happy about it eventhough it doesn’t start nice at the beginning of the class.


Need to remember :
 Study Skills is study strategies

The Pyramid Learning




You need to concentrate on what I want to explain about this triangle. The three aspects that are on the pyramid do not contribute very much to the final score but it is necessary to practice it in the classroom. However, Lecture,Reading and Audiovisual are important for someone to understand a subject so as not to be left behind. If you all see the pyramid, the score according to the pyramid sequel to the bottom is getting bigger. The knowledge that we had learned need to be practiced as it will disappeared if we don’t revise it within 48 hours. Demonstration, discussion and practice doing are tasks we need to insert in thing-to-do to be practical.

“All the knowledge in this world if not reviewed by its owner it will disappear from memory just like that.”

So in order to prevent it, we will need to teach others about the knowledge that we had. And because of that there were two types of people in this world. You all can chose to be either The permanent successful in his/her life or The temporary successful in his/her life. The permanent successful can be happen by using all the aspects above but the temporary successful just using some of the aspects, and his/her mindset is just only to get pass for the exam.


Next, the differences between Brain and Memory that not everyone in this world know.




Those two systems are really related between it as two of them are need in learning process but learning isn’t occur at both systems as it is behaviour. Learning is unlike memory and it does not have shape like brain but learning is process. So the memory is the record of the process and brain is place for the memory to be restore.







What you can see in the picture above and what are the similarities between it and human? For your information, there are three things you need to know about it

After my lecturer explain about it, then I think about the beauty of this god-created which is human being. After that, Lecturer Shamsinar told us that human are born to be a leader. Despite of having this beautiful body, we need to train it to be an excellent person by using it 100% towards our life goal.

So, the conclusion is we need to be a LEADER but not a FOLLOWER. It is important for me as student so that I will not influenced by other people that lead to negative things. Beside that, we need to be the one who influences others towards the good things.

Move to the next topic that I want to tell you is different between  OUTPUT and OUTCOME.


OUTPUT
OUTCOME

Outputs are those results which are achieved immediately after implementing an activity. For example, an excellent student studying earnestly for the final exam has earned a straightforward result that is straight A's but the knowledge he learned lost after the exam. The students forgot the knowledge little by little unless he did the revise. So, this is an output the project has achieved and it is achieved right after the conclusion of his effort.

Outcomes can be considered as mid-term results. They are not seen immediately after the end of the project activity. But after some time, when we see some change at the ground level because of the project activity, then it can be termed as an outcome. For example, a student who has a modest achievement learns consistently on a subject to understand the subject he is learning. The results of the examination were not as excellent as the student was still able to remember the subject he was studying. Finally, the student becomes a successful person in life Taking the above example of a student, then it is an outcome of his effort.

We had a little exercise here : ( Brain and memory test )

Exercise 1 : Can you state the colour for each word ?





Exercise 2 : Take time about 30 seconds on this list and write it down to a blank paper.


The question is how forgetting could occur?
  • Did not pay attention.
  • Do not understand.
  • Cramming.
  • Do not have good study strategies.
  • Interference at somenone surrounding.

Ways to improve brain and memory skills :
  • Plan a memory strategies : 
- Massed practice ( Not Good )
- Space practice    ( Good )
  • Make rehearsal ( Practice repeatly )
  • Make elaboration strategies ( Acronyms ) 
  • Make organizational strategies ( Mind Map Note )

Through ways that I had given,we need a concentration in order to make to reality.

The ability to think about something carefully or for a long time

There are many strategies to improve our concentration in study :
  • Always have a short breaks in each study session.
  • Make promise to yourself to get a reward after achieve high concentration.
  • Always alert yourself whenever you have a heavy tasks.

Important thing you need to know :

Whenever you have notes or something that can help you make revision, please do not be selfish to sharewith other.
