Working Memory Explained

🧠 What is Working Memory?
Working memory is your brain’s mental workspace — it helps you make sense of new information, hold it in mind, manipulate ideas, and use prior knowledge to solve problems. In this video, Dr. Erica Warren breaks down Alan Baddeley’s influential model of working memory in a way that’s simple for teachers, students, and practitioners to understand and apply.

🎯 Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ What working memory is and why it’s essential for learning and problem solving
✅ The role of the episodic buffer, visual-spatial sketchpad, and phonological loop
✅ How working memory connects with long-term memory to support thinking and retention

Whether you’re an educator, parent, or student, understanding how working memory works can transform how you approach learning, focus, and memory!
