44: Pearson's Mimma Mason On The Importance Of Working Memory For Learning

Mimma Mason is the Cogmed Manager for Pearson Australia, and spends much of her time raising awareness of working memory and its relationship to learning. Most of us might easily relate to long term memory, what we did a while back, or short term memory, like what we did yesterday. But do we give enough time to thinking about working memory? That's what's going on when we get exposed to new things, and it's a critical part of the learning process. Poor working memory makes learning that much harder. In this episode, Mimma helps us understand it, and more importantly, how we can develop it.
