This document contains a lecture presentation about memory and intelligence. It discusses how memory works, common ways our memory fails us, strategies for improving memory like associating abstract concepts with visual images, and Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. The presentation provides examples of questioning an image through the lens of different types of intelligence, like mathematical, musical, interpersonal, etc. It emphasizes that the goal is to get people thinking from different perspectives rather than finding answers.

• Why do our student forget?
• Because learning was not
memorable.

•Every little thing that ever happened to us :
Stored in memory
•But there are various occasion where our
memory lets us down.

Memory researcher Prof. Daniel Schacter
describes 7 ways in which our memories lets
us down.
1. TRANSIENCE
2. ABSENT MINDEDNESS Group A
3. BLOCKING
4. SUGGESTIBILITY
5. BIAS
6. PERSISTENCE Group B
7. MISATTRIBUTION

GROUP A
1. Transience : Loss of memory with time and
age
2. Absent
mindedness : Forget common things
3. Blocking : Almost at the tip of your tongue
but unable to recall
Satyabrata Das

14. [14]

GROUP B
4. SUGGESTIBILITY : Where you can be
tricked into registering false memories through
things like leading questions (Hypnosis)
5. BIAS : Where the way you feel now can alter
the way you remember events from the past
6. PERSISTENCE : Recurring unwanted
memories experienced in post traumatic
disorder
7. MISATTRIBUTION : Where you remember
experiencing something that did not happen

MEMORY ANALYSIS
•Registration : Taking the information on
board in the first place
•Retention : Hanging onto it when it is in
there
•Recall : Bringing it back out, preferably
as and when you need it.
Better the registration better the recall

Memorizing Abstract Concepts
•Man’s mind cannot understand thoughts
without the image of them
(Converting abstract to concrete)
•See it to remember it!
(Secret of effective registration)
Satyabrata Das

17. [17]
NationalInstituteofScience&Technology
GUIDELINES
1. Abstract concepts must be depicted using
figures so that registration will be better and
hence recall .
2. Add color (natural), motion, include ourselves
in that picture and a little bit of sexiness into
that image which helps in better registration
3. Introduce direct / indirect reference with
known facts (Hooking up / Plucking easier)

EIGHT INTELLIGENCE
Satyabrata Das
NUMBERS When it was built and destroyed?
SOUNDS What bells were there and what could they play?
SIGHTS What different geometric patterns are there in
the structure of the temple?
ACTIONS From where the stones are collected and how the
stones are piled up?
PEOPLE Who was the chief architect ?
FEELINGS How does it feel to stand in such a place?
NATURE What wildlife lives in the old monument?
WORDS What was its name and how did it get it?

1. It didn’t matter that I didn’t know the answers
to these questions
2. The thinking usually stops when the answers
start anyway.
3. The questions are starting point.
