How to use memory systems to strengthen your study in fashion technology?

This paper is about the efficient study method of transferring new knowledge from short-term memory store to long-term memory store under human memory system. Literatures are used to reveal basic concepts of memory system, experiment about boosting newly learned knowledge from short-term memory store to long-term memory store would also be reviewed and discussed. In the last part of the paper, a conclusion of the discussion, also some study methods would be suggested base on the concepts and experiments discussed. It was noted that the paper and suggested study methods are mainly focused in strengthening the fashion technology study.

This paper aims to analysis theory and research on memory systems and techniques, which can be helpful in enhancing the study in fashion technology. The human memory can be first defined as the learning of new information involves changes in the synaptic connections between neurons specialized for the storage of information (Parkin, 1999). In short, we should take good use of our memory system in daily life to help to strengthen our academic study. Especially for the study of fashion technology, it required good memory, for example to remember the basic concepts and working procedures of the machines before the advanced learning of developing yarn and machine. Therefore, several studies on how can we train up a better memory system would be reviewed and discussed below first.

The paper discusses how the memory systems and techniques could help our study of fashion technology. First of all, according to Atkinson-Shiffrin model proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968), sensory register, short-term store and long-term store are the three main systems in the human memory system. They stated that informa...

...t the revised knowledge, as once greater think about the information, it can last for a longer period in our memory. As a result, by escaping the short-term memory trap, the revised knowledge can be store in our long-term memory system and we can apply the knowledge in our future learning and career.
