    guys, my honest opinion is that you should not follow these tips. While they arn't wrong, they most certainly isn't the most effective way to remember what you read. Various studies have conducted that highlighting text and taking notes are one of the worst ways to remember new information. Summarising without looking at the book might be helpful, however it isnt the best way. If you think about it logically, what your really trying to do is recall the information, rather than remembering it. Remembering is kinda like trying to keep something in your head, where as recalling something is like drawing forth upon that knowledge. The latter is what you want to be focused on. What the studies have shown is that by focusing on active recall you are now practising the skills of recalling that information and to keep it in your head, you simply need to practice the skills of recalling over a spaced period of time. So when reading: 1. Ask questions periodically: - What did I just read? - How does this relate to anything that I previously knew - What are the key ideas - Can i explain to someone else. 2. make a spider diagram or a summary sheet or the whole book or per chapter from memory 3. to keep it in your head you need to break the forgetting curve. to do this, try and go over what you learned, once a week, once a month, every 3 months etc. not only is this way more effective, its also less time consuming, meaning you can read more books most of this I learned through the studies found in 'Make It Stick',

    How to remember more of what you read ? For Academic Books 1. Pre - reading : Go through the contents, skim through chapters, read summary, important questions, previour year questions for tests etc... 2. Highlighting : Read the book FIRST. Highlight Later. 3. Take notes AFTER you read : key terms, examples, important points 4. Summarise : Briefly 5. Seek out connected topics : We learn better when more connections are made in our brain. 6. Build Interest : Interest is the mother of learning and remembering more.

    Another highlight tip I like to use is to only highlight key words. It's kind of like reviewing cards for me: if I have a lot of information, I may recognize the idea but not having everything forces me to recall more specifically to prove myself that I actually learnt something by trying to remember what is around them and associate ideas in my head. This works wonders if I don't have time to make summaries or flash cards too since the information is condensed to the absolute key words. Great video as always :D

    Summary 5 General Reading Techniques 1. Pre-Reading. Read the table of contents, chapter sub-headings and bullet-lists within the reading, and any summaries at the back of the chapter. This primes you to read. 2. Highlighting. Highlight only on your second read-through, highlighting key propositions rather than everything. 3. Take notes after you read. As with highlighting, this approach assures you take notes on the most important information. Note key terms, main points, and/or effective examples. 4. Summarize after you read. Distill what you read into the most important points. 5. Seek and read secondary sources. Nurture your interest in the subject and make connections. Reading Practical Books 1. Use what you learn Additional TF pro-tip: Take a break from taking in information. Maybe exercise. Top Dissenting Opinion in Comments Section (DiLLGFX) 1. Focus more on practicing active recall of the information 2. While reading, ask questions such as (1) what did I read? (2) Does this connect to other things I know? (3) What are the key ideas? (4) Can I explain this to someone else? 3. After reading, make a summary sheet or spider diagram from memory 4. Practice active recall with spaced repetition.

    Somehow I managed to learn these techniques from having to do many long tests, like the Iowa, or the FCAT (Though that one isn’t in use in name anymore), but about all they told me to do to prepare me for the test(s) was to just Gus’s if I didn’t know the answer. I hate time limits on these types of tests. But regardless I had to learn what was the easiest way to get the needed information out of a text while getting the answer as close to or the correct answer as much as possible. So, I just read the title , then I read the 1st question, next I skimmed through the test till I found the corresponding information that would get me to the closest to the answer. Of course, this did teach me how recognize the needed information, but until this video I didn’t really think that these techniques could really be used to remember the information. I’ll try to remember to actually make myself remember the information next time I read like this. Awesome video!

    Highlighting only the important parts is also helpful when you try to summarize what you've read. Most of the time, I am not able to remember everything so after I summarize, I can easily go back and see what I highlighted to remember and the continue to summarize from there.

    I definitely picked green when he told us to imagine a colour and started tripping out when the screen was green when I opened my eyes....

    I've found underlining/pacing with a closed pen as a read increases my retention, but I'm not sure why. I think it's the physical movement reinforcing the memories.

    "Close your eyes and think about a specific colour." Me: "ok, green" **closes eyes** "Once you open your eyes again, you're gonna start noticing that colour everywhere." Me: **opens eyes and sees a green Thomas** _"holy--"_

    Most contemporary books make pre-reading & summarizing a snap. The problem for me are interruptions. When I’m in the flow state of studying, I cannot tell you how crippling it is to have my work interrupted.

    I used large note cards. It’s easier to carry around and it works as a book mark too. Then I transfer them to a note card box. I struggle to put things in my short term memory and this helps to remember the things I read. Helps with my creativity as well.

    Substitute "write it down" for "highlighting" and this works better. Most people cannot resist the urge to highlight too much, and this adds lots of noise to the process of reviewing the material later. Instead, make brief outline notes of the points that you would like to highlight, then fill in details later. This is also a good way to bootstrap the process of making your own material notes - it allows you to start small and do a little bit at a time.

    What about listening to audiobooks? You can't really preread/prelisten & taking notes while listening sometimes works, but I listen while I'm cooking, driving , etc. Could you make a video regarding audiobooks & tips on how to remeber more of what we listen to?
