CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Recall: a measure of memory in which the person must retrieve information learned earlier, as on a fill-in-the-blank test. Recognition: a measure of memory in which the person need only identify items previously learned, as on a multiple-choice test.

Detailed explanation-2: -As the name implies, short-term memory allows you to recall specific information about anything for a brief period. Short-term memory is not as fleeting as sensory memory, but it’s also not as permanent as long-term memory. Short-term memory is also known as primary or active memory.

Detailed explanation-3: -Recall: Type of memory retrieval in which the information to be retrieved must be “pulled” from memory with very few external cues.

Detailed explanation-4: -Different types of memory retrieval include recall, recognition, recollection, and relearning. Many areas of the brain are involved in memory retrieval such as the prefrontal cortex, areas of the temporal lobe, cerebellum, etc. Some evidence does exist about the formation of false memories during the recall process.

Detailed explanation-5: -Fill-in-the-blank-type questions test the recall power of learners and not their ability to recognize or synthesize. Use them for situations where you want the learners to supply the answer based on how much they can remember.
