\mytitle{The Fundamentals of Memory}{\gp}

Within psychology today, we started expanding further on the concept of memory.
Some of the learning examples included test on ourselves to access our memories,
examples, and a video at the end.

One of the tests which we completed was remembering words in a list to test our
short-term memory. Fourteen words were shown for a brief moment, then we were
instructed to wait around fifteen seconds to let our short-term memory clear,
and finally we were instructed to write down as many words as we could.

Additionally, we completed similar tests for sensory memory by flashing around
fourteen letters on the screen for less than a second, and writing down as many
as we could at that moment.

Finally, we completed a test for our long-term memory where we had to memorize a
set of numbers, -- which incremented in count -- wait fifteen seconds, and write
down the exact set of numbers. First we started out with a single number, then a
pair, a triad, and so on.

Todays use of hands-on learning made it engaging and exciting to test ourselves,
while soaking in the information using first-hand experiences.
