Of course, many of the classical works have been rewritten, sum-

Allan Baddeley: Working Memory
Baddeley's working memory theory laid the framework for a lot of
what we understand about how short-term memory is recoded into
long-term memory over time. Many modern theories are based on
Baddeley's original observations. If you desire a greater understanding
of the learning taking place when a learner is seeing audiovisual pre-
sentations, and can't quite figure out how long-term memory works,
this is a great place to start.
