Revision technique to boost your studies

Today learnt a great revision technique from one of my teammate in
office.

We are all attending 5 days training on some new technology and today
was the second day. Yesterday, we began at 8 and finished at 5 with
some good topics and hands on. Today morning he entered and he took
out a sheet of paper and rerun all the things that we did last day.

So how can you apply it in studying for aesi.

Take a paper, and before you begin to read new text, new topic or new
material. Write on the paper all the things that you have learnt the
previous day on the same subject. Ask questions on what you read and
answer them. No need to be clean, concise or correct, just write.
Write whatever you remember. Imagine the terms and get them on paper.
Run through the topics one by one.

Well that's it, once this is done, turn the paper down and get back to
study the new stuff.

There are 3 distinct advantage of this technique.

1. You poke your mind and exercise it to get active and retrive the
information it received earlier. Just by remembering and writing it
out you strengthen the ties.

2. This exercise at the start of your study session sets up the mood
to study further, to learn more and to dive deep.

3. The old things and topics that you bring forward by means of that
paper creates additional pegs that you can hook the new informations in.


Well I believe if you follow just this method, you are well ahead in
your studies. Try it!
