It has not been established as of yet what it is that triggers the remembrance of memories that have been repressed so inducing them in a laboratory environment seems next to impossible.
c) With your knowledge, imagine as a future professor how you might be able to help students remember important parts of your lectures.
I know from personal experience that when it comes to remembering things presented in a lecture it is always more helpful if the lecture is interesting and alive. I think that if I were a professor I would do my best to make each of my lectures electric and exciting as possible. It is very important to not only capture your audience's attention but to retain it as well. A lecturer must connect with students and draw them into the lecture. This rapport can be accomplished in a variety of ways. Students must decide how to organize this information in their own minds and notes. The more you can provide students with a framework for interpreting lecture material, the easier it is for them to understand new ideas (How to Create Memorable Lectures, 2005).

If one can make an association with something that they already know about it seems that it is much easier to remember a new concept. As a professor I would try to make as many connections with real world as possible with the material that was being taught. Many times it only takes the slightest thing that is familiar to spark the remembrance of a difficult concept.
It is important when teaching to have many different identified techniques to use when trying to get someone to remember something, as not everyone learns the same and thus not all techniques work for everyone when it comes to remembering. Having a complete arsenal of methods is the best way to guarantee success.

Emotions and Memory Emotions, memory, and Freud Emotion and memory Describe how emotion influences memory for details and how non-emotional events are remembered. Emotion can have a measurable impact on what and how different environmental stimuli are recorded in one's memory. Because emotional arousal facilitates storage -- "neuroimaging studies demonstrate amygdala activation during the encoding of emotionally laden stimuli" -- memory recall is enhanced "for information presented in a (negatively) emotional context" (Anderson &
This is in contrast to making an argument about who to vote for in the upcoming election campaign with a fellow student or the professor in a political science class, where one is more apt to use logic and reasoned discourse, rather than emotion to sway someone to one's position. Thus, although the usual distinction between academic and everyday intelligence is that one is more dependant upon innate intelligence or
Criminology: Memory and the LawMemory has ample implications in the field of law for detecting a true criminal and the defenders who are struggling to prove themselves innocent. The journey from the investigator seeking for the truth to the final verdict of the court is affected by various factors of the memory, even the participants in the process such as the eyewitnesses, the jurors� and the emotions of criminal investigators
EMOTION vs. COGNITION: DIFFERENCES & INFLUENCES Psychology Emotion and cognition are integral aspects of the human condition. The average person, when asked, is quite likely to have a working definition and knowledge of emotions. Emotions are almost constant within human beings. Cognition may not be so easy to understand or be easy for define for the average person. Emotions can also be called feelings; there are affective aspects to emotions as well

Psychology of the Consumer Behavior Consumer behavior is a complex phenomenon to study and analyze. When it comes to the psychology of the consumer behavior, it is even complicated. Since the individual differences affect the biasness of the people towards certain brands therefore generalizing the things is much difficult. Consumer goods can share a same apparent purpose but the real meaning can be different for different people. Psychology of the consumer
