Memory Tips To Remember – Part Two

7th September 2019 by UBee

A different twist on this is to first organise the notes into sections that make sense, have patterns, are familiar or other ways that will break the information into patterns. Then follow the steps listed in Memory Tips to Remember Part One.

Some information is better memorised in and out of order and for those facts you might try note cards.
The index cards should be thicker so you can’t read through them.
On one side in black ink write the word in all caps. On the opposite side write the concept/definition/idea in lower case letters in another color pen.
Mix up the note cards. Find a quiet place to rehearse.
Spend time testing yourself using the cards. If you answer the questions correctly then put them in one pile, and another if you answered incorrectly and yet a third if the answer wasn’t quite right.
Now pick up the cards that you didn’t get right and go through them until you have them right. Repeat with the third stack of cards.
Now mix the cards up and repeat the testing from the beginning making the same three piles as you answer the questions.
Rinse and repeat until you get them all correct.
Using note cards allows you to test yourself throughout the day, when you may have a spare minute.

Memory Tips To Remember – Part One

24th August 2019 by UBee

Optimising your memory is a skill we can all learn.

Students, adult learners and employees all have the need to memorise something at one time or another. Students may need to memorise maths facts, poetry, or text for information heavy tests. Adult learners and employees often have the need to memorise facts for meetings or to give presentations. Each of these different memorisations can be done using different techniques. The trick is to figure out which technique or strategy works best for you or for your specific requirements.

Memorisation isn’t nearly as difficult as you might otherwise anticipate. The issue is that most people only try to memorise by reading the same text over and over again.

App Designing as a Hobby

15th June 2019 by UBee

Can you imagine life without the apps on your smartphone? They have become such a part of our everyday life, it’s hard to imagine studying, travelling or day-to-day life without them. In real terms, they are actually a very recent addition to our lives.  But their impact has been astounding.

Learn to Spell? It’s the Latest Hobby

1st June 2019 by UBee

It only lasted one series on TV , but the show called The Big Spell back in 2017 has started a whole new interest in spelling as a skill.

Based on the Spelling Bee contests so popular in the USA, The Big Spell saw teams of young people compete through to the final, proving they really were the best at spelling!

For many of us, the use of computers and spell check has sent our spelling skills to the bottom of the class
