Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore how the different studying environments affect student’s memory. During the time of Covid-19, online learning has never been popular around the world. Compared to in-person learning, online learning gives students a chance to do distance learning and effectively prevent the spread of viruses. However, college students reported that the limited attention span is one of the disadvantages of online learning [1]. We explicitly focused on student’s memories in different learning environments. Students from online group and in-person group will do a short word memory test and the results show that students from in-person group have a higher average correct rate. Therefore, we conclude that face-to-face instruction will help students develop more solid memories.
