Working Memory for Educational Psychologists

We have developed a series of four films and PDF fact sheets explaining working memory in detail and how it relates to classroom learning in children and young people.

Each set of resources explores a different aspect of working memory in relation to education and learning. In each set you will find a short film and a PDF resource pack:

• What is working memory?
• Short-term memory
• Distraction
• Strategies

These resources are aimed at educational psychologists and related professionals.
