You hear people say that they have a good memory, bad memory, photographic memory or a ‘memory like a sieve'. So what exactly is memory? A simple definition would be someone’s ability to retain or recall what he / she has learned or experienced.
Memory, or your ability to remember things is REALLY important for school, study, revision and exams (as well as just about any other area of your life). This module is going to focus on giving you tips and strategies to improve memory. It will be a kind of ‘memory training’. Like every other area in Studyvibe though, memory training will require you to take action. Just reading about how to improve memory is not enough. You actually have to do the work. Just like you won’t become a great runner by watching a marathon, you won’t improve memory just by reading about it. You have to actually take action. Start your memory training now.
