This video is about the two main types of memory—declarative and non declarative. The initial part of the video lays the foundation for understanding basic brain and neuron functioning. The brain is dynamic. This means it does not remain in the same state. It changes over time in response to a changing environment.

In the context of learning and memory, association allows you to remember a lot of information.

Key Takeaways:

1
Learning and memory are connected and intertwined, but are a separate set of processes. Learning is how the nervous system acquires new information, while memory is how the nervous system stores new information.
2
Two types of memory are: declarative and non-declarative. Declarative Memory typically requires language to describe different situations and is available to your consciousness. Non-declarative memory is typically not described by language and not available to your consciousness.
3
Motivation is one of the most important factors in determining the information content of our memories.
