INTRODUCTION
You are bombarded with information every waking mo-
ment. Once selected, some information passes from imme-
diate memory—that is, what you can sense—into short-term
or holding memory. Finally, a small amount of the original
information makes it to permanent long-term memory. The
final move to long-term memory is what we call learning. In
this chapter, you will learn how information is captured, se-
lected, and stored.
