Angela is a student who listens attentively in class and recopies and elaborates on her notes from several textbooks the minute she gets home from school. She studies with a group that explains concepts to each other, and they write on a big blackboard while they work. She makes flash cards out of the few vocabulary terms she has a hard time keeping straight, and goes through those between classes and in spare moments. What kind(s) of memory are being developed by Angela, and by which methods?

Recopying notes and asking questions about what she has learned helps consolidate the information into long-term memory. Flash cards help to develop associative learning skills, but probably in short-term memory; putting those words to use contributes to long-term storage. Explicit or declarative memory is created with the study group.
