Working Memory is used to describe the part of our memory that stores information very briefly. All information is first processed by our working memory then by rehersing that information we can retain it for a while longer. For example we may be introduced to a person at a party, initially when we hear their name it will be stored in our working memory. However if we do not reherse that name by repeating it back to the person we will forget it very quickly
