Memory is the term given to the structures and processes involved in the storage and subsequent retrieval of information.
Memory is essential to all our lives. Without a memory of the past we cannot operate in the present or think about the future. We would not be able to remember what we did yesterday, what we have done today or what we plan to do tomorrow.
Without memory we could not learn anything.
Memory is involved in processing vast amounts of information.
This information takes many different forms, e.g. images, sounds or meaning.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

AQA Psychology A Level Revision Cards - Memory Topic
1. Coding, capacity, and duration
Coding: the format in which information is stored in the various memory stores
Research on coding: Baddeley (1966) acoustic/semantic word lists – acoustic STM,
semantic LTM
Capacity: the amount of information that can be held in memory store
Research on capacity: Jacobs (1887) STM digit span – mean span across ppts was 9.3
items, 7.3 for letters; Miller (1956) span and chunking – suggested STM span is 7 +/- 2,
chunking is grouping sets of digits or letters into units
Duration: the length of time information can be held in memory
Research on duration: Petersons (1959) STM duration – found duration was about 18
seconds with no rehearsal; Bahrick et al. (1975) LTM duration – highschool recall, found
after 48 years free (no cue) recall was at 30% and face recall was at 70%
Eval: Baddeley – artificial stimuli; Jacobs – lacking current world validity, confounding
variables; Millers – cowan (2001) suggested was only about 4 chunks not 7 +/- 2; Petersons
– meaningless stimuli, more a study on interference; Bahrick et al – higher external validity,
lack of confounding variable control
2. MSM
Coined by Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968, 71)
Sensory register/memory stores for all five senses, large capacity but extremely short duration
Short term memory – capacity around 7 +/- 2, coded acoustically, duration of about 30 seconds
Maintenance rehearsal is repeating the information until it is passed to the LTM
Long term memory – supposed unlimited capacity, coded semantically, supposed unlimited duration but
memory degradation occurs after about 48 years
Eval: MSM is supported by many clinical studies, there is more than one type of STM (oversimplifies) – KF
Shallice and Warrington (1970) amnesia study, more than one type of rehearsal – Craik and Watkins
(1973) maintenance and elaborative (elaborative allows for LTM transmission), many studies to support
use artificial material, LTM also has more than one type
3. Types of LTM
Tulving (1985) combatted the MSM claiming it too oversimplified, creating three
base types of LTM
Episodic memory: a LTM store for personal events, such as someone’s birthday.
Has a ‘time stamp’ attached to it and requires conscious effort to retrieve
Semantic memory: a LTM store for knowledge of the world, such as the capital of
Denmark. No time stamp, needs to be recalled consciously
Procedural memory: a LTM store for knowledge of ‘how-to’s’/practical skills, such
as driving a car. No time stamp, can be recalled unconsciously
Eval: has clinical evidence – Clive Wearing’s brain damage (procedural
untouched); MRI and Pet scanners prove that different types of LTM activate
different parts of the brain; real-life application; problems with clinical evidence –
lack of variable control; Cohen and Squire (1980) suggest there are two types of
LTM, not three
4. WMM
Baddeley and Hitch (1974) developed this model of memory to combat what they thought was the underdeveloped MSM,
focusing on STM
Central executive: the co-ordinator, assigns tasks and controls the three ‘slave systems’, very limited processing capacity
Phonological loop: first of the slave systems. Deals with auditory information and preserves the order in which info is
received- split into the phonological store (stores the data) and the articulatory process (allows maintenance rehearsal by
repeating the words back with two seconds of capacity)
Visuo-spatial sketchpad: second slave system. Stores visual and/or spatial information, Logie (1995) divided the VSS into
the visual cache (stores visual data) and the inner scribe (records arrangement)
Episodic buffer: third slave system, added in 2000. Brings together material from other subsystems into a single strand of
memory, and also provides abridge between STM WMM and the LTM
Eval: has support from clinical evidence – Shallice and Warrington (1970) KF study, phonological loop damage but VSS
intact; Baddeley et al (1975) dual task performance shows that the subsystems have limited capacity; the central executive
is underdeveloped; brain scans support WMM
5. Interference theory
Interference is the process of forgetting because one memory blocks another –
causing one or both memories to be distorted or forgotten
Two types: proactive – forgetting occurs because old memory disrupts recall of
newer memory; retroactive – forgetting occurs because new memory disrupts the
recall of older memory
McGeoch and McDonald (1931) studied similarity’s effects on retroactive
interference. Found that the most similar lists (two lists of words, second list was
the IV) produced worst recall, showing interference is strongest when memories
are similar
Eval: evidence supported by lab studies; many lab studies contain artificial
material that lacks external value; real-life studies such as Baddeley and Hitch
(1977) rugby player experiment support it; time in experiments is not long enough
to be considered valid in some cases; cues are important in forgetting and
interference theory negates that
6. Retrieval Failure
A form of forgetting that occurs when one does not have access to cues needed to retrieve
a memory. The memory is available but not accessible
Tulving (1983) Encoding specificity principle – if a cue is to help recall information it must be
present at both encoding and at retrieval. Two types of cues that can be used are external
(leads to context-dependent forgetting) and internal (leads to state dependent forgetting)
Context Dependent: Godden and Baddeley (1975) deep-sea diver experiment – accurate
recall was 40% lower in non-matching conditions
State Dependent: Carter and Cassaday (1998) anti-histamine word list experiment –
performance on memory test was significantly worse in non-matching conditions
Eval: much research support- Eysenck (2010) argues retrieval failure is biggest cause of
forgetting in LTM; Baddeley (1997) said context effects are not as strong as they seem;
underwater experiment- recognition had no CDE but recall did; ESP cannot be accurately
tested, cannot be proven; CDE and SDE have real-life applications, external validity
(cognitive interview etc.)
7. Misleading Information
The theory that misleading information such as leading questions can heavily effect the accuracy of
eyewitness testimony in any scenario, but specifically for court use
Leading questions Loftus and Palmer (1974): student ppts watched clips of a car accident and then were
asked questions about it in five groups (leading verbs- ‘about how fast were the cars going when they
hit/contacted/bumped/collided/smashed each other?’); mean speeds were different for every group- ex.
contacted 31.8mph, smashed 40.5mph
Second experiment: wording changing ppt’s memory of the film- ppts who heard ‘smashed’ were more
likely to report broken glass than those who heard ‘hit’; there was never any glass
Post event discussion (Gabbert et al, 2003): studied ppts in pairs- each watched same crime but from
different perspectives. Both ppts discussed what they had seen before having individual recall tests- 71%
had inaccurate recall, compared to 0% from control group with no PED
Eval: use in real life- improving police interviews/legal system; tasks were artificial- missing the emotions
that come with witnessing accidents/crimes; individual differences- researchers often use young people,
inaccurate to the entire population as older people are less accurate; demand characteristics- Zaragosa
and McCloskey (1989) argued many answers given in lab studies are due to demand characteristics, as
ppts want to be helpful
8. Anxiety
Anxiety can have both a positive and negative effect on EWT according to the Yerkes-Dodson Law (1908): there is an
optimum level of anxiety that leads to optimum accuracy in recall, but anything above and below that level will lead to
inaccuracies in EWT- applied to EWT by Deffenbacher in 1983
Negative anxiety effects, Johnson and Scott (1976): fake lab study, ppts sat in a room whilst an argument took place next
door. Low-anxiety condition, man walked through with a pen in his hand; high-anxiety condition, he had a knife covered with
blood. Ppts later had to pick the man out of 50 photos- 49% accuracy from low anxiety, 33% from high-anxiety- tunnel
theory, ppts did not notice face b/c of weapon
Positive anxiety effects, Yuille and Cutshall (1986): study after a real shooting in a gun shop, where the owner shot a thief-
13 agreed to take part in study. Asked to rate their emotional distress due to the event on a 7 point scale, then recount what
happened- this was compared to original police interviews. 88% accuracy for more stressed group, compared to 75% for
the less stressed group
Eval: WFE not relevant- surprise rather than fear, Pickel (1988) handgun chicken salon advert; field studies lack control-
PED and misinformation can easily occur, anxiety overwhelmed by other factors; ethical issues- risky to maybe cause
psychological harm within lab studies; Yerkes-Dodson is too simple- bell curve may be inaccurate and oversimplified;
demand characteristics- ppts may be aware of aim of study
9. Cognitive Interview
Fisher and Geiselman (1992) argued that EWT was too unreliable with current police methods, and so recommended
techniques that coincided with cognitive psychology, the cognitive interview (CI)
Four main techniques: report everything- include every detail, no matter how irrelevant; reinstate the context- go back and
recite everything that one can remember from the scene of the event; reverse the order- report events again, but this time
from middle to beginning, or from the end to the start; change perspective- recite events from someone else’s perspective
Enhanced cognitive interview (ECI): Fisher et al (1987) developed additional elements of the CI to focus on the social
dynamics of the interaction
Eval: CI is time consuming- takes a long time to do, and to train interviewers with proper techniques; some elements are
more valuable- Milne and Bull (2002) found combination of report everything and reinstate context produced best recall;
effectiveness of ECI- Kohnken et al (1999) 50 study metanalysis, ECI consistently produced better results; variations of CI-
each study varies the technique, which is also true for real life, enhanced external validity; increase in inaccurate
information- metanalysis found 81% increase of correct info, but also a 61% increase of incorrect info with enhanced CI
