Memory
From the memory test on Virginia Tech's website, I used my study locations of the desk in my bedroom, my kitchen table, and the office in our house. The results showed that the office was my best place to study, and second was my bedroom. This is pretty good, because I use my room mainly for studying, because there are always people in the kitchen and I can't concentrate with that. I don't use the office that much, but seeing these results, I probably should. I could only remember seven of the words, but I got them all right. I think my memory strengths are my ability to keep information and visuals help me a lot to do that. I can learn things better if I can associate them with something else or connect them. My weaknesses would probably be being able to be motivated enough to go over the information regularly and having a positive atitude about certain subjects. I also don't really understand the brainstorming method they talk about. I came up with these acronyms: IIML - Iconic Implicit Memory Learning, LIMI - Learning Iconic Memory Implicit, LEMIP - Learning Explicit Memory Iconic Psychology, IMPEEL - Implicit Memory Psychology Echoic Explicit Learning, and EMP - Explicit Memory Psychology
