 Advanced Memory Techniques
If you have read Steve's blogs on how he made it through college, you may remember him mentioning advanced memorization techniques. I have been working on developing these skills for myself, but i find it a little more challenging to apply them in real life situations- like college classes. I have read the entire Memory Master course suggested by Steve in one of his blog entries (I would link the site, but the page is not loading for me right now). I have been able to apply the link and peg techniques and have found them useful in memorizing random lists of objects. I think i have the most trouble using replacement words to make a mental picture of abstract words (words that do not directly correlate with a visual representation like most nouns do). If any of you have mastered any of these techniques, or are in the process of mastering them, i would greatly appreciate your advice. |
