Read the text once. look up vocabulary u don't undestand. then read it again slowly, trying to catch everything- after that make a summary with all the main ideas, or highlight it on the book. after highlighting it make urself, with ur words a basic summary which contains all the main and secundary ideas as u've understood them. after that try to memorise it by repeating it twice or three times. and ur done. if it's maths,jst start from the first excersise up to the last .. nd practice.. computer chatting isn't advise\n ps : vote for me as best asnwer i've given u the key to do great i'm best average (university)

Read last thing before you go to sleep. \nYour mind has a way of "saving" the information you just gave it ...plus there are no other distractions and events to make you for get the material.

make up a REALLY RUDE poem that helps you memorise the term. \nMy aunt used to do this when she was at uni, and she still remembers things 30 years later!!

Instead of writing Word macros, you may find it easier to use a 3rd party utility like hotkeybind that will let you use hotkeys in ANY program to recall words, phrases, entire pages, etc.\n\nHere's the link http://hotkeybind.sourceforge.net/

If they are words in a new language, I'd make flashcards -- those always work well for me. \n\nFlashcards also work well for words in your native language that are new to you.\n\nIf you are trying to memorise a poem, the best way to do that is by repetition. Say a line, repeat it over and over, say another line, repeat that with the first one, etc. Soon you will know the whole poem! \n\nGood luck! :)

Read! Read! Read!\n\nNovels, Short stories, Kids books.\n\nRetell some stories in your own words.\n\nImprovise on the stories you have read.\n\nThis is the start.

The most important thing is to concentrate what you are reading, if you don't have enough focus on it you won't recall and even understand it. Most of the time when you have enough concentrate you'll recall the point of your study.\nBefore reading your kind of study, try to specify what you are exactly going to read. Through this you will have much aim for study your lessons.\nDon't forget to make light and the temperate of your room in the best way.

Try using them in conversation, and don't try to remember too many new words at once.  Gaining contextual familiarity and not overwhelming yourself will help you remember new words.  Good luck!

You remember by associations and practice. \n\nTry different techniques. Find what works for you and use it. Visualization and tactical learning works for me. So reading works for me, as do working problems (pen to paper/keyboard) but most leature  go in one ear and out the other. \n\nIf you needs some techniques you could look at the following web site.

Well it depends on if you want to improve your long term memory or your short term memory - they're separate entities.  I suggest looking into some psychology texts in your local library.\n\nMemory is all about practise - it's like learning your times tables when you're young.  Repetition is a good way to do it, but is more suited to memorising something specific.\n\nRemove as many outside distractions as possible when trying to learn something, or else your focus will be split in several directions.

Short of hypnosis or truth drugs, I make the following suggestion:\n\nTake the white pages from a large city and slowly go through the various names.\n\nPerhaps, a Name will trigger your memory. Maybe.\n\nGood luck.

It depends upon the way you think. We're all different.\n\nFor me, the best way was to always write stuff down. Even if it was a little incoherant. For me, the process of writing makes me remember stuff more. Others remember by saying - so use notecards. Hope this helps.\n\nGood luck.

Been there, done that.\nWhen ever you read something, create a picture of it.\nwhen i study, i take breaks. Most of the time when i study, I walk and pace. The pictures in my head help me most.\nOne important thing, make sure you understand one thing at a time and when you are done with a page, dont go to the next page until you have absolutely memorized the whole page completely.\nSometimes, i re write everything again, helps me alot. Especially using different colors.

Try to do as much hands-on learning as you can. Learning from a text-book can often become boring and monotonous. Try to have fun while you learn. Some other tips- if you have a list of things that need to be remembered, try to make a code of it- for example, a code for the Great Lakes is HOMES (Huron, Ontario, Missouri, Erie, Superior). Also, try to make a rap song out of the things you have to remember and make them as funny as possible. Good luck!
