Over time, these disparate elements of information are connected with existing.
Clt is grounded in the idea that human cognitive architecture consists of three main components: This theory created a blueprint for clt in terms of the multiple types of memory involved: Clt goes some way to explaining why this happens and what we, as teachers, can do to maximise the learning of individuals within our classrooms.
