The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of common learning strategies such as note-taking and photo-taking on memory performance. During the experiment, some lecture slides will be presented to the participants. In the meantime, they will be asked to take notes, take photos of the slides, and/or just evaluate the slides. Besides, participants may be asked to rate their likelihood of remembering each slide. Afterward, they will complete a memory test about the lecture slides.
