How to improve your studies—scientifically
Our brain can possibly memorize 2. 5 petabytes(千兆)of information. In order to use some of that surprising capacity(能力)a little more effectively when you learn, here are some tips that are based on widely-accepted research by learning experts.
1.
Some enjoy watching videos over reading books, others study with friends, and some like sitting in silence among a million books. Everybody is different.
Hard things first
2. , so do the things that are difficult first. Once you are done with the hard things, you will feel better for the rest of the day, and probably more motivated to get other things done.
Space(分隔开)your studies
3. . Facts or vocabularies, for example, are best learned if you review them the first time one to two days after the study, and then again after one week, and after one month.
Instant self-test
After your study, finish up with a quick quiz. Immediate recall in the form of a test or a short summary on what you’ve just learned can increase retention(记忆力)by as much as 30%. 4., that extra effort creates deeper traces(痕迹)in your memory.
Don’t force it
Motivation is like hunger. You cannot force yourself to be motivated, just like you can’t tell someone else to be hungry. So, if you are not hungry right now, don’t worry. 5..
A. Take fun seriously
B. Find your own style
C. Take a break, and do something else
D. Good memory can grow your brain’s potential
E. Because it’s much harder for your brain to remember than to read
F. Like most people you have the strongest willpower in the morning.
G. to remember things for a longer time, repeat the material after taking several breaks
So often I hear people justify(为……辩解)their lack of family trips because their children are not old enough to remember them. This reason is so confusing to me. Who would travel based on another person’s memory?
Of course the kids aren’t going to remember anything in infancy(婴儿期), but you will. You will remember all the sweet memories you had with them.
My parents would take me to Guatemala as a child. I don’t remember a lot about the trip, but I do know that when I went back as a young adult, I felt comfortable in my surroundings. I didn’t spend my time there discovering a new way of life. I spent the time having fun with my family. I love looking at pictures that we took together when I was my son’s age. I don’t remember them, but that’s not the point. The point is, I was there with my family, and I know I was happy.
Now that I’m a parent, I can’t help but do the same. Last year, we took our 2-year-old son to Disney alongside his great-grandmother. His great-grandmother had recently begun to suffer from Alzheimer’s. That trip was timed in the most magical way — right before my son was old enough to remember it and right before his great-grandmother began to forget. This makes me want to cry for them both. How did we get so lucky to have this moment to share with each other before big changes influenced our family forever?
Realistically speaking, many families do not have the opportunity to travel internationally or visit pricey theme parks. I understand this more than you know, but I’m talking beyond that. They are young but these forgettable moments are still changing them. They will shape your children into who they will be tomorrow. The memories we absorb as their parents are also as influential as we have not finished learning our truths either.
