How To Improve Your Memory by starryadmin: 9:36am On Apr 22, 2020
After studying for hours and you attempt to solve past questions,
Sometimes times you noticed that you can’t remember all you have read.
How would you feel if you can naturally remember lots of things?

“Memory is the diary we all carry about with us” ---Oscar Wilde.
If our memory is like a diary, why can’t we remember everything we memorize or study?

Good memory is needed in order to do well at school.
So, how can you improve your memory?


• ALWAYS TAKE NOTE WHEN STUDYING

On average, humans can remember roughly 7 things at any one time in their working memory.
This means we sometimes need simple strategies either to work around this fact,
or to maximize this limited capacity.
One strategy is to always take note when studying or in the class.
By doing this, you don’t have to store and juggle lots of information in your working memory.
You can store it on a piece of paper and refer to it when we need it.

CAUTION: Taking notes with a pen and paper is usually a better strategy than on an iPad or laptop.

The next point is that,

• ALWAYS TEST YOURSELF

How do you prove that you understand what you have read, if you don’t practice?
Once you have spent time learning a topic, it is helpful to test yourself.
This allows you to think deeply about the topic,
and it also has the added advantage of providing practice for performing under exam pressure.
This is called retrieval practice, sometimes referred to as the Testing Effect.

The more you practice what you have learnt, the more likely that it will become automatic.
Once things are automatic, they take up less space in your working memory,
meaning you can do it on autopilot (like brushing your teeth,
you’ve done it so many times you don’t require much conscious effort to do it).
When preparing for WAEC exams, it is advised to solve at least
10 years past question to test your level of preparedness for the exams.

When you continue to test yourself based on anything you learnt,
it will help improve your memory in terms of assimilation and remembering of things.

I will stop here for today and continue in my next article
