When jane was attending a lecture on how to become a better learner, she spent a lot of time doing some media multitasking (e. g., sending texts to friends, checking emails). when she had to take an in-class quiz administered at the end of that lecture, she was not able to recall lecture information well, although she thought she was processing some lecture-related information while multitasking. this example best illustrates forgetting that occurs due to

insufficient initial encoding

Explanation:

Organisms have the ability to recall and store memory. This ability is the result of encoding. Encoding allows organisms to retain a memory by converting an item into a construct in the brain. The memory is stored in the form of long term or short term memory.

Here, Jane has not encoded the lecture in her brain i.e., not converted the lecture to a construct in her brain. This means that it has not been stored in her short or long term memory.
