This article has been written by Steve Wheeler, Associate Professor,
Plymouth Institute of Education. He writes about John Andersons ACT-R model of memory in the framework of theories that relate to teaching and learning. This model is named Adaptive Control of Thought- Rational and is a cognitive theory of learning that is concerned with the way memory is structured. This model is an adaption of ACT model and is made up of three main components: Declarative Memory, Procedural Memory and Working Memory. The Working Memory is known previously as the conscious part of the memory as Short Term Memory. It is in between the sensory register and Long Term Memory. The working memory includes visual and auditory stores. The Long Term Memory includes two forms of memory storage concerned with Declarative (that is, facts) and Procedural (how to do something). For educational purposes, Andersons model points out that teachers should be aware of that there are different kinds of memory. Due to the fact of the working memory is limited, we might pay attention to avoid overloading this memory with too much information. Conversely, teacher should encourage our students to combine knowledge and actions because a combination of thinking and doing can be a powerful mix of activity to deepen learning in just about any subject area.
