Assignment
From the reading about memory processes I learned that following appropriate strategy can improve study skills. It allowed me to learn that different strategies can be adopted for enhancing memory. The first suggestion for improving memory is chunking that means memorizing information in small pieces. The second strategy that can be used for improving memory is elaborating rehearsal. In this process the meaning of the new word is recalled by using knowledge that is already stored in memory. The third suggestion is of using mnemonic devices. This device allow learners to encode information and recalling information in stages or phases. The example is recalling months in an orderly form like January, February, March etc. The fourth strategy is saying words loud. This allow learners to store information in memory and recalling at the time of need.
My time management skills will be applied to SmartPrep modules by adopting different strategies. To retain information in memory for a longer period I would use chunking and mnemonic devices. I will follow a certain order such as Mercury, Venus, Earth for memorizing placement of planets.
Annotated bibliography
Article 1: Sleister, H. M. (2014). Evidence-Based Strategies to Improve Memory and Learning. Journal of Microbiol Biol Educ, 15 (2), 336–337.
The article stresses on identifying ways for enhancing memory. It explains the memory enhancing strategies can be effective for learning. The common strategies identified include recalling, reading aloud, frequently asking questions from the teacher and writing. Frequent quizzes at classroom also makes memorizing easy for the learners. The article highlights benefits of memorizing.

The article explore the role of memory enhancing strategies on learning of students. One of the most effective method of retaining information for a longer duration is reading aloud. This also reflects the effectiveness of rehearsing words. When an individual reads the information again and again it is stored in the memory.
