Memory Techniques for Public Speaking- How to Use Mnemonics to Deliver a Perfect Speech

[@ricardin99]

I think your method is very useful, I like the idea, but I didn't try it. Do you think it's good for studying philosophy kind of materials? Because in my university we have a lot of "critical" theories about the world in Psychology classes. So it's difficult for me to study it because it is a little bit complex. Today I'll try your SCALM method. I wish it helps with this kind of information. I don't know if it makes sense. In summary, what I'm trying to explain is that my teachers say that we don't need to memorize information because they say that it is not understanding. But I personally think that only understanding the material doesn't make me learn anything. What do you think about it? And do you think active recall based studying is better than imagery/association based learning?

I believe that understanding a text is not enough, but must be combined with an appropriate learning strategy. During our studies, we all face the same problem: learning boring, abstract materials. Regardless of how well you understand a material, when it comes time to learn it for an exam, you need a systematic approach to learning, and for this I designed the SCALM method, which combines several memory techniques with the aim of transforming learning in a proactive process. The SCALM learning process involves a work of deconstructing, organizing and reconstructing (recoding) the material, all these stages being part of the natural process of efficient learning. In simple terms, it translates the abstract information into the alphabet of the brain, which is made up of concrete images, thus making it possible to memorize it in the long term.

Why did you take down your classes from skillshare, I was a student :(

[@ChrisMNemo]

It was not my decision, the Skillshare team considered that my classes violated some of their rules and temporarily suspended them. I hope that the problem will be solved quickly and that the classes will return there. All the best,Chris

@@ChrisMNemo Yeah I think that's a mistake from their side. I hope they return asap.
