In this Webinar

Once information gets through the brain filters and becomes working memory, it needs further processing to become long-term memory. Strategies of mental manipulation are needed to develop neural circuits of long-term memories. This webinar will connect the most recent memory research from neuroscience with classroom instruction strategies that promote accurate, durable, and efficiently retrievable long-term memory.
