Recall

It is fascinating how the brain can selectively store information. Through our readings we saw that th brain can store things, and then recall them based on need. From my group project I researched the two kinds of recall. The first being Serial recall. Serail recall is the ability of the brain to reiterate information in an exact logical/numerical order in which it was provided. The other is Free Recall. Free recall is the ability of the brain to reiterate information provided only in whatever order the subject chooses. Serial inplies order, and free meaning in any form as lon as the content is there and reprovided.
