2. Information Processing Theory
Information processing theory focuses on the mechanism
or the learning process. The focus of the theory is mostly
on encoding and retrieval.
The basic idea behind the Information Processing theory
is that human brain is similar to a computer or an
information processor, which is distinct from the
behaviorist notion that human beings merely respond to
stimuli.

processing' Model
Their theory emphasised on varied ways of information
expansion (attention, labelling, meaning and perception)
which affects our ability to access and apply the same
information later no.

5. Rumelhart and McClelland's -
Connectionist Model
This theory is supported by neuroscience research. The
theory states that information is stored in different
parts of the brain and are connected as a network. The
number of connections one piece of information has
will affect the retrieval ease.
