title: The Brain From Top to Bottom

address: http://thebrain.mcgill.ca/flash/d/d_07/d_07_p/d_07_p_tra/d_07_p_tra.html#3

review:The first page of this site gives very clear examples of STM and LTM and the areas of the brain in which they are activated. There are links on this page that are explanatory of such phenomena as: remembering and forgetting, how memory works, mnuemonic devices, and different models. For example: The different types of LTM that are explained are declarative v non declarative (or implicit). The level of explanation on this site ranges from very basic to advanced, so no matter at what level you would like to understand memory, this will supplement your learning.

tags: cog3310, ch 6, ch 7, memory

I tagged the site in this manner because this site covers that which may be able to supplement the learning of ch 6 and ch7 in cog3310
