  Chapter 3: The Learning Process › Memory › Sensory Memory

  Sensory Memory Sensory memory is the part of the memory system that receives initial stimuli from the environment and processes them according to the individual’s preconceived concept of what is important. Other factors can influence the reception of information ... sensory memory. For example, if the input is dramatic and impacts more than one of the five senses, that information is more likely to make an impression. The sensory memory processes stimuli from the environment within seconds, discards what…

  skill), information about the experience has been encoded, stored, and retrieved. Figure 3-22. Information processing within the sensory register, working on short-term memory, and long-term memory includes complex coding, sorting, storing, and recall functions. Although there ... universal agreement of how memory works, a widely accepted model has three components: sensory memory, short-term memory (STM), and long-term memory…

  cannot distinguish between acceleration forces due to gravity and those resulting from maneuvering the aircraft, which can lead to sensory illusions and false impressions of an aircraft’s orientation and movement. Under normal flight conditions, when there is a visual ... reference to the horizon and ground, the sensory system in the inner ear helps to identify the pitch, roll, and yaw movements of the aircraft. When visual contact with the horizon is lost, the vestibular system becomes unreliable. Without visual…

  Chapter 3: The Learning Process › Learning Styles › Visual, Auditory Kinesthetic Learners

  Visual, Auditory Kinesthetic Learners One of the most popular learning styles is based on the three main sensory receptors: vision, hearing, and touch. These are called visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles (VAK). [Figure 3-16] Research in this area…
