Understand the concept of explicit memory, which refers to the conscious, intentional recollection of factual information, previous experiences, and concepts.
Recognize that explicit memory is closely linked to the development of certain brain structures, particularly the hippocampus and the frontal lobe.
Consider the role of the hippocampus, which is crucial for the formation of new memories and is not fully developed until around age two.
Acknowledge the importance of the frontal lobe in memory processing, which continues to develop throughout early childhood and supports the ability to form explicit memories.
Reflect on how the development of these brain areas allows children to begin forming explicit memories, as they start to understand and organize their experiences in a coherent manner.
