remembering

n. the process of consciously reviving or bringing to awareness previous events, experiences, or information. Remembering also involves the process of retaining such material, which is essential to learning, since without it one would not profit from training, practice, or past experience. According to Endel Tulving, remembering is distinct from knowing (see remember–know procedure). Methods of assessing remembering include the recall method, recognition method, and savings method.
