Similar ideas to Test Yourself (Active Recall)
Written active recall
After you’ve completed a chapter, write bullet points on what you want to take away from it.
It will give you a concise list of bullet points per chapter, without interrupting the flow of reading and without you having to write stuff you don’t care about.
Recall
Take a couple minutes to summarize or recall material you are trying to learn.
It goes a long way to taking something from short-term memory to long-term learning.
Recall good things
Our brains tend to remember more of the bad stuff that has happened to us.
Write down precious moments and you’ll see your progress and find positive things that slipped your attention.
