Answer 1

Answer:

Human memory is the ability to store, process and recall information.

Explanation:

There are three main processes by which human can memorize information; these are encoding, storage and recalling.

The recommendations for lost memory or to improving memory are:  

1. Encoding of information: Information should be stored in a way which they can be easily recalled. This can be achieved by breaking information into chunks, storing them in picture format or interpreting the information in a preferred language.  

2. Recalling: Information storing ability can be improved by trying to recall stored data from time to time. Consistent recalling within a short interval helps one to remember what was stored or learned.

3. Taking notes helps to improve the ability to recall, it’s advisable for people with short memories to take note and revise it from time to time.
