工作记忆（WM）是学习的基础，与学习成绩密切相关。工作记忆差的儿童需要课堂支持，但教师对工作记忆的理解却知之甚少。一个在线问卷（N= 1425）评估教育专业人士的理解有关WM的关键概念。受访者普遍表现出一定的理解，虽然大多数高估WM持续时间。也有相当大的差异，被确定为与穷人WM和可能的战略，以帮助这些孩子的迹象。这表明有必要为教师提供有关工作记忆的培训，并在开发支持材料方面进行研究人员和教师之间的合作。
Working memory (WM) underpins learning and is strongly associated with academic achievement. Children with poor WM need support in the classroom, but little is known about teachers’ understanding of WM. An online questionnaire (N= 1425) assessed educational professionals’ understanding of key concepts related to WM. Respondents generally showed some understanding, although most overestimated WM duration. There was also considerable variability in the signs identified as being associated with poor WM and possible strategies to assist such children. This demonstrates the need to provide teacher training about WM, and for collaboration between researchers and teachers in developing support materials.
