There is no such thing as a bad memory
HOW should you revise?
1.Have a definite finishing time e.g. “I will finish after 2 hrs”
2.Have PLANNED breaks, after every 25 mins or so
3.Make these breaks short!
Actually DO something ACTIVELY
During revision……….
do
hear
read
say
see
We remember20 % of what we read
30 % of what we hear40 % of what we see50 % of what we say60 % of what we do AND
90 % of what we read, see, hear, say & do
Research by Tim Brighouse has found ….
Keeping up to date, and spending time each day NOW, is the difference between……………
being offered your career choice or settling for what you can get.
70% OF WHAT WE LEARN TODAY IS GONE WITHIN 24 HOURS UNLESS…………….
you INTEND to remember it and REVIEW it
There is no such thing as a bad memory
1. Optimists cope better in life than pessimists
2. We learn 3 times faster when we
a) understand HOW we learn best
b) positively believe we CAN SUCCEED
and
Try different methods for revising things, to find out which works best for you
ANDdon’t forget……”we remember 95% of what we teach others!!”
When you say to yourself “I’m no good at French”
you subconsciously indicate it to everyone, and don’t try
Then when you fail, both you and others say “Oh well. I’m not surprised. Told you so!”
Remember Henry Ford? “Whether you believe you can, or whether you believe you can’t, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT”
There is no such thing as a bad memory
•Say things out loud to help you REMEMBER•Record things electronically, and play it back when you are at home, in the car etc.
•Don’t avoid the hard stuff; it won’t go away!
•Don’t kid yourself that you know something. REALLY knowing it means you can recall it anytime
GOLDEN RULES during revision
•Don’t study with music on- you need QUIET in order to CONCENTRATE
•REAL revision MAKES YOUR BRAIN HURT
Go over your work again and again and again
until you can recall it without even thinking
IF YOU CANNOT RECALL THE IMPORTANT POINTS YOU HAVE NOT
LEARNED THE MATERIAL
The most important points about revision are that it must:
