Resources for the Chapter Quiz and Unit Exam
I recommend you view the Nova video and the Short and Long Term Memory, and view one of the videos on false memories by Dr. Elizabeth Loftus posted below: 

Optional Resources

 * Nova video on how memory works. (Has some info about H.M.)
 * Short and Long Term Memory. NOTE: Not great audio/video quality, but this shows the basics of the memory model.
 * Information about short term memory.
 * And long term memory.
 * False Memories: See Dr. Elizabeth Loftus talk about creating false memories and why it's a problem:
 * 5 minute version
 * 1 hour version
 * Eye Witness Testimony: How good a witness is an eye witness?
 * Interested in training your brain? There is research showing that these kinds of games actually do work (This website requires a subscription, but I think there is a trial period you might want to check out).
 * Remember when we talked about the "Google Effect" on the brain? Here is a short video showing how the internet is ruining our brain: @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKaWJ72x1rI
