The Cerebrum

Question 7 • Psychology - EL2084 A

Identify what part of the brain deals primarily with memory and learning, and explain the process by which we use memory to help us learn.

Answer

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: Memory and learning are functions of the cerebrum. We use our memory to help us learn through storage in short- and long-term memory. New information is stored in short-term memory. If it is information we want to keep, such as names, numbers, dates, and faces, it is transferred to long-term memory. To make sure information is properly stored, repetition is required. In the case of learning and memory, practice makes perfect.
