memory is a storing process. the three stages in the memory process are sensory, short term, and long term. sensory memory is the first stage. information enters the brain via your senses such as taste, smell, hearing, touch. unless this info is payed attention to it is most likely to be erased. short term memory is the second stage. like sensory, information is only stored for several minutes. chunking is a strategy used to help enhance shot term memory. it works by condensing the amount of information you have to learn. the last stage is long term memory. this is information that is stored permanently. for example, rememmbering a birthday party from the past.
