Wishing good day to everyone. Today we will discuss about Special Edu. Articles: Developing Your Memories. Good memory power is paramount important not only to student but also to everyone, because without it we cannot learn anything. Firstly, l will outline the basic
methods first in developing memories then we will go to a more advance or new methods.
*Method 1: USING POWER OF REPETITION - Research shows that we cannot recall 70-80% of what we have read few hours ago. To fix it in firmly in your memory, start revising or repeating it straight away. You can do this by taking short notes when you`re studying, by discussing with your friend`s, by revising the short notes before going to sleep and it`s also a good idea to speak it out when studying, don`t just study in your heart because the memory is reinforced by sound wave. Each repetition serves as reinforcement, this will help you in long term memory.
*Method 2: USING THE POWER OR CLASSIFICATION/GROUPING - This method of developing memory is very important in practical life. It is very helpful when you have to remember a lot of things. Just say, you want to do shopping for 50 items, start categorising them according to groups i.e. apple, orange & banana under Fruits; Cabbage, tomato & cucumber under Vegetables. However don`t overload yourself with a lot of categories, because studies of memories have shown that you will remember more if you limit to 7 groups.
*Method 3: USING LINKING/RELATING TECHNIQUE - You can use this method when you have to remember difficult words i.e. Arnold Swarzenegger can be remembered as Arnold Vinegar & Pennsylvania can be remembered as pen.
