Short-term memory- An individual may be able to answer questions in class immediately after a concept or skill is taught. However, by the time new information is introduced, the old information has been forgotten. Long-term memory- An individual will have no problem storing the information in his/her memory, but will later have trouble recalling/retrieving the information later as needed.
