Detailed explanation-1: -According to the information processing model, our memory works like a computer. Information comes in via our senses through various stimuli and is processed by our brain. This information can be stored in our short-term or long-term memory, depending on its importance.

Detailed explanation-2: -Information from the senses passes through the sensory register to immediate memory and then on to working memory for conscious processing. If the learner attaches sense and meaning to the learning, it is likely to be stored. The self-concept often determines how much attention the learner will give to new information.
