Don't review. Recall!

  • Use recall and not review
    • For example: Read a list for five minutes and then make a note about what you remember will make your learning more effective in long term.
    • If possible do this in a row
  • "Every time you succeed at recalling, the reward centers in your brain release a chemical reward --dopamine-- into your Hippocampus, further encouraging long-term memory storage." Fluent Forever, David, page 32
  • You will accomplish this goal by creating flash cards that test your ability to recall a given word, pronunciation, or grammatical construction. Coupled with image and personal connections, these cards will form the foundation of a powerful memorization system.
