This document discusses ways to improve memory through maintaining an active brain, using multiple senses when learning, having a healthy diet, repetition, mnemonics, and exercise. It explains that the hippocampus acquires and stores new memories, the amygdala reacts to emotionally powerful information, and the cerebral cortex stores information. Memory involves encoding, storing, and retrieving information, with different memory systems for short-term and long-term storage. The presentation provides tips like challenging the brain regularly, incorporating multiple senses, eating brain-healthy foods, revisiting information, using memory aids, and exercising for better memory and brain function.
