Our Brain's Sticky Notes

Picture
Think of the countless moments each day—in classrooms, workplaces, or social settings—when we receive a detail, direction, name, request, or note. Picture each of these as a sticky note. Whether it’s recalled moments later, months later, or even years later, that sticky note preserves the information.

Our brain functions like a sticky notepad, retaining details and instructions for 30 seconds or 30 years. It could be a four-item shopping list, a password, a set of ideas, or a significant anniversary date. It might be a simple reminder or an inspiring quote. Whatever it is, our brain’s sticky note feature ensures you remember it.

Essential in Skills Such As:

Picture
Recalling maths and spelling rules

Picture
Lecture listening and notetaking

Picture
