    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contextual_learning

    Contextual learning can be used as a form of formative assessment and can help give educators a stronger profile on how the intended learning goals, standards and benchmarks fit the curriculum. It is essential to establish and align the intended learning goals of the contextual task at the beginning to create a shared understanding of what ...

  3. Context-dependent memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context-dependent_memory

    In psychology, context-dependent memory is the improved recall of specific episodes or information when the context present at encoding and retrieval are the same. In a simpler manner, "when events are represented in memory, contextual information is stored along with memory targets; the context can therefore cue memories containing that contextual information". [1]

  4. Contextual cueing effect - Wikipedia

    In psychology, contextual cueing refers to a form of visual search facilitation which describe targets appearing in repeated configurations are detected more quickly. The contextual cueing effect is a learning phenomenon where repeated exposure to a specific arrangement of target and distractor items leads to progressively more efficient search.

[1] The impact of context effects is considered to be part of top-down design. The concept is supported by the theoretical approach to perception known as constructive perception.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-dependent_memory

    At its most basic, state-dependent memory is the product of the strengthening of a particular synaptic pathway in the brain. [9] A neural synapse is the space between brain cells, or neurons, that allows chemical signals to be passed from one neuron to another.
