Few students know how to revise effectively, which is why they waste so much time going over and over material, as they try to hammer it into their heads. But you don't need to spend all that time, and you don't need to endure such boredom. What you need to do is understand how to review your learning in the most effective way. Using examples and exercises from science, math, history, foreign languages, and skill learning, that is what this book aims to teach you.This workbook will tell you
  • what you should practice or revise
  • how you should revise
  • how often you should revise
  • how far apart you should schedule your sessions
  • different strategies you can use in your practice / revision
  • how skill learning differs from 'fact' learning
and more.
This workbook is for students who are serious about being successful in study, and teachers who want to know how best to help their students learn.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Fiona McPherson has a PhD in cognitive psychology, from the internationally-regarded Psychology Department at the University of Otago, New Zealand. She has spent the decades since that achievement following the research into how the human brain thinks and learns and remembers, and communicating that knowledge and its practical implications to a lay audience. She has done this through her long-running and extensive websites (www.memory-key.com and www.mempowered.com), and her books. Her guiding principle is that people are more likely to use effective strategies if they understand how and why they work, and know precisely when and when not to use them.

    It has some good info and sources for further reading but has a lot of overlap with her other books.
