Findings from neuroscience reveal that in teaching-learning environments and assessments, we, educators, need essentially to focus on generalised/ high-level concepts to create lasting memories within learners. These generalised/ high-level concepts are stored as semantic memories that are retained longer as opposed to episodic memories (more specific details relating to time and space) that are forgotten easily. This phenomenon also adheres to the higher-order learning highlighted in Bloom’s taxonomy.
