. LTM has a large capacity and can store material for long periods of time, depending on how well that material is learned. But before information can go into LTM, it resides in working memory , which has a very limited capacity and short storage time .
State-of-the-art research suggests WM can only remember four chunks of information and relies on structures called the hippocampi, two penny shaped clusters of neurons or brain cells. Based on what the learner does, the hippocampi help store the memories in LTM, which is primarily five-to-six layers of neurons that cover the bulk of the brains like a squishy blanket. This neocortex is where what we want to learn resides.
