Abstract
Once students learn subject matter, teachers want them to recall it. When a certain task is performed faster with less errors repeatedly, learning is said to take place. Learning, retention, recollection, recall and recognition are important for academic success. The attitudes, knowledge, skills, and hope provided during growth and development will be the foundations of adulthood. Formal education pedagogy requires the student to learn. Learning is a change of behavior or skills that result from experience or instruction. Education must also have a retention and its corollary transfer as part of its components, for without the second part there is no education. The article discusses what education and retention entails and the components of retention.
