CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Semantic encoding involves a deeper level of processing than shallower visual or acoustic encoding. Craik and Tulving concluded that we process verbal information best through semantic encoding, especially if we apply what is called the self-reference effect.

Detailed explanation-2: -Semantic processing, which happens when we encode the meaning of a word and relate it to similar words with similar meaning. Deep processing involves elaboration rehearsal which involves a more meaningful analysis (e.g. images, thinking, associations etc.) of information and leads to better recall.

Detailed explanation-3: -Semantic processing is the deepest level of processing according to this model. In semantic processing, additional meaning and related information is encoded at the same time. This leads to a very strong memory trace because of deep processing.

Detailed explanation-4: -The different encoding types include: Visual Encoding. Acoustic Encoding. Semantic Encoding.

Detailed explanation-5: -The levels of processing effect occurs because our brains find it easier to recall information that is encoded on a deep level. Semantic encoding is considered a deep level because it associates new information with existing emotions, ideas and knowledge, thereby creating a larger memory trace.
