Week 14: The ending


Our class on 14th May and 16th May were our last class of the semester.
Truthfully, this semester was really challenging and it was full with many ups and of course, many downs. 
In our class on 14th of May, we learn about the retrieval cues.


At most of the times, we the information are always available but we need to use the right cues to retrieve it.
 Basically, there are 4 retrieval cues which are:
1) Identity cues
2) Associative cues
3) Frame
4) Contextual cues.

Besides than that, we also learn about the power of suggestion and also false memory which could affect the reality of our memory. 

Regarding forgetting, there are few things that makes us forget which are:
1) Retrieval failure cue
2) Interference theory
3) Motivational forgetting
4) Pseudo forgetting 
and
5) Organic amnesia

Lastly, on our last class, we did a few exercises on memory. Anyone who wants to improve their quiz mark could have it credited.
 Dr Lihanna also tells us about the format of the exam. Basically there will be Part A,B and C. We need to answer 3 questions for both Part A and B and choose 1 essay question for Part C.
It's the end of our class of psychology of learning.
But, our assessment did not finish yet. We need to submit out animal training report and our personal journal on 17th of May and i guess that's the end of it.
We learn a lot in this semester. 
There are times we feel like quitting but Alhamdulillah we have arrived to the finish line.
Good luck everyone with the final examination. We hope we will pass with flying colors. 
Till next time, Assalamualaikum.
