Figure 1: Dual Coding
The image shown above is more than just an illustration of Dual Coding; it’s is actually an

into our brains.
There is an increasing amount of research, including repeatable experiments and evidence from
neuroimaging, that supports Dual Coding as an effective learning strategy.

Let’s start by examining the problem of forgetting. In 1885, learning scientist Hermann
Ebbinghaus set out to memorize a few documents, then tested himself repeatedly on what he
remembered. He was only able to remember all of the details if he tested himself immediately
after memorizing. Ebbinghaus found he only remembered 100 percent of the information at the
time of acquisition. After that, he started forgetting information very quickly. When he waited 20
minutes, he could only remember 58%. A day later, he could only remember 23%. He called this
