Long term memory or Learning Continuum?
When teaching coding, it is essential that students understand medical terminology well. Referencing terms that students learn in medical terminology as they learn coding is a standard practice I use so that the student not only secure long term memory,they recognize that to be good coders, they need to have a learning continuum.
Barbara, I agree when students see relevance to what they are learning and how it is related together, they are motivated to remember the content.
I agree students seem to retain information when they see relevance and this creates motivation
