What are the essential
skills and/or learning outcomes you want your students to know and be able to
do that relate to cognitive learning?
It is important that students are able to recognize and recall information. If they can detect patterns and activate prior knowledge they are more able to store skills in their long term memory. For tips on practical ways to incorporate these techniques refer to my previous post.
How might your knowledge of the memory processes guide your instructional decisions?

How might your knowledge of the memory processes guide your instructional decisions?
Depending on what the students know already determines your instructional decisions. If you are able to pretest your students you will know what " building blocks" they already have that you can continue to expand on. After you determine where they are coming from you can make decisions about the design of your instruction. If you know techniques, such as the one we have discussed, you will know how to teach in a way that encourages the long term memory.
