The Science of Memory and Forgetting
Hermann Ebbinghaus conducted the first experiments on memory from 1880-1885. He hypothesized that forgetting depends on difficulty of learned material, representation, and physiological factors such as stress and sleep.
Forgetting Curve
Ebbinghaus produced a curve widely known as the forgetting curve to demonstrate how fast we forget information over time.
Reasons to Take Notes
a) Most of the information mentioned in class won't be on the slides b) In one hour, you'll forget 44% of what you were taught c) Taking notes helps keep you focused
Student Views on Note Taking
A 2019 survey found that almost 90% of students believe note taking is necessary, less than 60% organize their notes after the lecture, less than 50% take notes for online courses, and almost 70% think note taking interferes with the lecture.
Effective Note Taking
Research shows that taking notes with pen and paper is more effective and efficient than using a computer. Pen and paper note takers remember more facts and understand concepts better.
Note Taking Strategies
The three most commonly used methods of taking notes are: 1) The Cornell Note, 2) Diagrams, and 3) Comparison charts.
The Cornell Note
Developed by Walter Pauk, the Cornell Note system helps students organize and review their notes. It includes sections for main information, keywords, and a summary.
The Commonplace Book
The commonplace book, dating back to the early 1600s, was a personal way of recording quotes, facts, and ideas. Today, apps like Obsidian can assist in retaining important information.
Making a Cornell Note
A typical Cornell note has three sections: a) wide right-hand column for information, diagrams, and pictures, b) narrow left-hand column for keywords and concepts, and c) bottom summary section for summarizing in your own words.
Deep Learning
Note taking is the first step in fostering deep learning, which leads to long-lasting acquisition of knowledge. This involves summarizing in your own words, identifying key ideas, and making connections among concepts.
Note-taking guidelines
1. Write down information in your own words. 2. Use diagrams and sketch pictures. 3. Focus on keywords, concepts, and important phrases. 4. Summarize your notes in your own words at the bottom. 5. Make connections among concepts. 6. Foster deep learning.
Benefits of Cornell Notes
- Helps take, review, and organize information. - Forces you to focus on important information. - Encourages putting things into your own words. - Enhances understanding and retention. - Useful for organizing and summarizing notes.
Diagrams and Concept Maps
- Effective way of taking notes. - Simplify and visualize information. - Aid in understanding and retention. - Illustrative diagrams and explanatory diagrams. - Concept maps organize and structure knowledge.
Concept Mapping
- Developed by Joseph Novak. - Organize and structure knowledge. - Depict connections and hierarchies. - Useful for designers, engineers, and technical writers.
The PERMA Model
- Positive emotion - Engagement - Relationships - Meaning - Accomplishments These are the five pillars of well-being.

What does PERMA stand for?
PERMA stands for Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment. It is a framework for understanding well-being and success in various aspects of life, including schoolwork.
What is the difference between an agenda and a storyboard?
An agenda is for specific deadlines and due dates, while a storyboard is a plan of when you will study and how you will spend your time.
How many hours do university students spend on studying?
Estimates show that only 20% of students reported doing at least 20 hours a week of studying. A large-scale survey of full-time first-year students showed that they spend about 14 hours a week studying, which is roughly one hour outside of the classroom for every hour in the classroom.
How can you prevent burnout while studying?
To prevent burnout, it is important to find a balance and not overwork yourself. Limit your study hours to a maximum of 8-10 hours per week and try to incorporate leisure time or workouts during the day to prevent burning out in the evening.
How many hours should you study?
The general rule of thumb is to devote two hours of study time for every hour of class time.
Is the number of hours spent studying strongly associated with grades?
No, research studies show a very modest association (about 0.2) between the hours spent studying and grades.
What is the significant and meaningful relationship between study habits and academic performance?
There is evidence that shows a significant and meaningful relationship between daily diligent study, sobriety, and academic performance.
What is shown on a scatter plot?
A scatter plot shows how two things are related. In this case, it shows the relationship between the number of hours studied (x-axis) and GPA (y-axis).
What does a data point on a scatter plot represent?
Each dot on the scatter plot represents the data from one person.
What does it indicate about a person highlighted in yellow on the scatter plot?
The person highlighted in yellow is studying the most (at the high end of the x-axis) and has one of the highest GPAs (at the high end of the y-axis).
What does it indicate about a person highlighted in green on the scatter plot?
The person highlighted in green is performing just as well with far less study time.

Circadian rhythms
Biological processes that occur in a 24-hour cycle
The sleep-wake cycle is called a circadian rhythm
The 24-hour sleep-wake cycle is referred to as a circadian rhythm
Hormone release, metabolism, and body temperature are circadian rhythms
Hormone release, metabolism, and body temperature follow a 24-hour cycle
The brain region that regulates circadian rhythms
The suprachiasmatic nucleus is responsible for regulating circadian rhythms
The suprachiasmatic nucleus is like a master clock
The suprachiasmatic nucleus coordinates and synchronizes circadian rhythms
The length of the sleep-wake circadian rhythm
The duration of the sleep-wake circadian rhythm is slightly longer than 24 hours
Sunlight helps reset the internal clock
Exposure to light helps adjust and reset the internal circadian clock
The suprachiasmatic nucleus uses daylight information
The suprachiasmatic nucleus uses light input to reset the internal clock
The sleep-wake rhythm persists without light
The sleep-wake rhythm continues even in the absence of light
Melatonin release
The secretion of the hormone melatonin
Melatonin signals it is dark and time to sleep
Melatonin informs the brain and body that it is nighttime and sleep is needed
Adenosine makes you sleepy
The hormone adenosine induces drowsiness
Factors that can disrupt melatonin release
Various factors can interfere with the release of melatonin
Adenosine builds up throughout the day
Adenosine levels increase as the day progresses
Sleep pressure
The accumulation of adenosine that leads to sleepiness
Adenosine turns off wake-promoting brain regions
Adenosine inhibits areas of the brain associated with alertness
Adenosine cycle
The cycle of adenosine accumulation and subsequent sleep
Adenosine peaks after being awake for 12-16 hours
Adenosine levels reach their highest point after 12-16 hours of wakefulness
Phenomenon of being perked up or experiencing a second wind
Feeling more alert or energized after a period of fatigue
Melatonin levels peak between 2-4 am
Melatonin concentrations reach their highest point between 2-4 am
Sunlight signals the end of the sleep cycle
The presence of light indicates that the sleep cycle is complete
Absence of melatonin signals it is time to wake up
When melatonin levels decrease, it indicates it is time to awaken
