Everyone once in my life taking exams.Many, several times: at school, at admission to college or university, and while studying.And how we have developed long-term memory depends largely on the success of the training and delivery of all kinds of examinations and tests.
psychologists interpret the concept of memory as a mental process that is responsible for the accumulation, storage and reproduction of knowledge, skills and abilities.This human activity is characterized by many features, including the division of the following types: short, long and short term memory.When a person needs to remember any of the information in the first place for this is in the short term.Its volume may be different.It depends on many factors including age, life experience, ability, thinking species that is used for storing a certain amount of information.
For all that is deposited during the training and exam preparation, initially responsible short-term memory.It is a kind of filter, to screen out a lot of unnecessary and translating useful information in long-term memory.It is - as the archive, which laid out on the shelves all the pupils or students in the further knowledge.That should be just in the long-term storage, it gets there by willpower.Why then we have to re-read a lot of material in preparation for the exam or something to memorize.
There are many exercises and ways to make more efficient the process of remembering.Scientists largely agree that long-term memory stores information from short-term over time.That is why it makes no sense to teach the tickets before the exam, better distribute the preparation of a few weeks or months - because knowledge will be stronger and more aware.
basic processes of memory - this storage (in this case, arbitrary), preservation (which is best provided by a repetition of the material), reproduction (before the exam at the consultations remember the content of tickets) and recognition (when meaningful memorizing triggered communication, which have been preserved in memorizing).These processes are interconnected and operate more efficiently when the student is set to sensible perception of educational material.
So, how does the long-term memory will successfully pass the exams?All the knowledge that teachers are given for a semester or academic quarter should remember consciously.You can thus have recourse to any association, repeated periodically traveled to perform additional tasks on the topic.
to the memory did not fail the exam, you should allocate time to teach and tickets to a predefined plan.Taking into account the schedule of examinations and time to prepare them, it is necessary to allocate the number of memorized material evenly, leaving time for breaks and holidays.Memorize by heart do not need a ticket, quite carefully (preferably aloud) to read the material, draw up a rough plan for a quick response and try to answer the question on the plan.Repeat material ticket worth an hour, and then - the next day.To consolidate learned, once again recommended to return to this ticket about a week.It is advisable to verbalize the answer out loud, so is engaged not only visual, but also motor and auditory memory.The more ways of remembering will be involved, the better the result.
good to use charts, tables, figures, and created their own (that is personally meaningful).The images, which were in preparation before your eyes, the memory helpfully present at the examination, and to these pictures and diagrams will be much easier to reproduce the study material.
main thing - not to bring the body to stress, memorizing tickets in the last days, forgetting about good nutrition, relaxation and healthy sleep.This does not lead to positive results.
