To answer this question, Sarah will propose how we tackle misconceptions about memory and give students a way to think about memory that feeds into good habits for learning. We do not want them to think of memory as a library where information is stored, static and easily accessed over time. We want students to see memory as an ecosystem:
- dynamic,
- adaptive, and
- interconnected
The keynote, will flesh these ideas out and link them to how we can encourage students to learn meaningfully and remedy the negative effects of forgetting.
