This is a series (that I assume is never going to end) on how to learn. From here I'll do my best to link to all posts I do on learning so hopefully this can be a one stop shop for learning tactics and techniques.
The above picture will become more clear as time goes on. It will be eventually used to tie all of these techniques into a story so that it's easy to remember. Here's the main concepts, eventually all of these will have links to posts on the topics, but as mentioned, this is a work in progress.
- FACTS MATTER-why we must learn facts before we can think critically and problem solve
- Memory 101:Memory Anchors-the basis of remembering
- Memory 102:Anchoring for Meaning-How you Think Determines How you Remember
- Memory 201:Mnemonics-supercharging your memory
- Link method
- Method of loci
- Peg method
- Practice-The truth about how important practice is
- Deep vs. Surface Comprehension-moving into higher cognitive arenas
- The Expanding Brain-Neuroplasticity and new learning horizons
