Learning Games
People remember what they are doing better when they have an adrenalin surge. Trying to fix something more securely in the memory by repeating something over and over is a very unproductive way to go about strengthening the memory. Why do frightening events have such strong hold on people? People remember that scary feeling and events associated with it for a long, long time because they had an adrenalin surge. People remember when they were successful and triumphant because of their elation; they also had an adrenalin surge. Utilizing this physical response is the key to faster and better retention of events.

One day you are talking to some friends at a party and you want to approach someone that you met somewhere, but you can’t remember their name. Later on you want to tell someone about the movie you saw last week, but the name of the lead actor escapes you. Then on the way home you remember that you’re supposed to pick up something from the store, but you just don’t remember what. What’s going on? Do you have some affliction? Are you losing your mind? Probably not. Difficulty remembering things is as old as the human race.

Photographic Memory
The human mind is, at the present time at least, unexplainable. Albert Einstein, one of the greatest minds science has ever known, explained many of his breakthroughs as thought problems that no one else had ever, well, thought of. Some people, many of them unable to interact normally with people around them, can perform amazing mathematical calculations in their heads faster than an average person can punch the equation into a calculator. Or they can tell you, instantly, what day of the week July 14th of 1864 fell on. Some people, said to have a “photographic” memory, can read a page of letters or numbers or diagrams and then recite or draw them perfectly. And some people, for better or worse, have perfect memories. They never forget anything, ever.

Computers in the Classroom
Some would argue that computers in the classroom don’t encourage a child to use their mind enough to come up with answers. But it must be considered that browsing the Internet, learning computer skills, and using creative methods to find answers might be more mentally stimulating than traditional methods. Stimulating learning methods that encourage initiative and learning new skills make it easier for a child to learn many things and develop a better memory.
