    These are the good techniques I learned from the video:

    Mnemonics
    Mnemonic devices
    Acronyms
    Association
    Chunking
    Loci Systems
    Peg Systems
    Remembering names
    Note Taking
    Idea Mapping
    Pay attention

    The Ideas in the video really helped me understand hot to retain information more efficiently. Specifically, the part where it says how our Ears don’t process information quickly enough to retain all the words being spoken. In the video I also learned focusing on visual images helps the brain receive more information.

    Things that can help inhibit good mental health retention are sleep, being socially active, laughter, eating healthy, exercising and having a high interest in what you’re interpreting. Sleep is critical to learning and memory. Researchers show that having meaningful relationships and a strong support system is vital for brain health. Laughter engages multiple regions in the brain unlike other emotions that are only limited to specific areas of the brain. People that are happy overall have a larger prefrontal cortex than people who are in a negative mood. Eating Healthy helps boost brain power specifically omega-3s.

    Mental Retention is important to becoming a Medical Interpreter because remembering is key to the profession! Without being able to remember how can you interpret what was said ? Mental Retention can help you intake the Knowledge and store it for future encounters.

    On August 11, 2000, President Bill Clinton signed the Executive Order 13166 to help improve access to people with Limited English Proficiency (LEP). However, on March 1, 2025, President Donald Trump signed a new Executive Order 14224, which revoked order 13166 making English as the official language of The United States.

    I believe executive order 14224 is very unfair to all individuals who simply cannot communicate in the English language. The lack of English and resources impacts a limited English speaker very negatively; this can cause many problems or even health issues due to the lack of communication.

    Although the Executive Order 14224, is in affect Massachusetts has statutory and regulatory standards for language
    access which are meant to “provide the broadest possible protection for the rights of non-English speaking
    persons to understand and to be understood. Title VI of the federal Civil Rights Act requires services that receive federal funds to make provisions to
    ensure that limited English speakers can meaningfully access important services such as education, legal
    services, health and mental health care. I can see Executive order 13166 being applied to our state because of this act.

    Prefixes help healthcare professionals and patients understand the meaning of medical terms more clearly. Prefixes are word parts that appear at the beginning of medical terms. This is helpful because prefixes provide additional information about the root word, such as its location, quantity, or condition.

    Suffixes are word parts added to the end of medical terms to modify their meaning. This is helpful because understanding medical suffixes can help you interpret medical terms more accurately and gain a deeper understanding of medical conditions and treatments.
