Short Term Memory Project

This project involves discovering how to create the best setting to improve the memory of humans. The goal of this experiment is discovering which music, if any, will create the best environment for retaining information. The types of music we resolved to use were: country, rock, rap, classical, choir, forest sounds, trap, Dubstep, pop, and heavy metal. The first segment of the experiment was purposed to test the application of short term memory, we played the different types of music in the background as we displayed a long, irrational number on the board for our test subjects to memorize. Afterwards, they would write down as many numbers as they could recollect. Subsequently, we reviewed their papers and tallied how many numbers they memorized
