human cognitive architecture

Human cognitive architecture refers to the mental structures and processes that enable us to think, learn, and remember. It includes how we perceive information, organize knowledge, reason, solve problems, and make decisions. This architecture is often visualized as a complex system, where different components, like memory and attention, work together harmoniously. Similar to a computer, our brains process input (like experiences or facts) to produce output (like understanding or action). Understanding this architecture helps researchers design better educational tools and improve cognitive health by recognizing how we naturally learn and retain information.
