Memorization Tricks

Online students are often bombarded with information from textbooks, websites, chat sessions, and multimedia lectures. It can be difficult to remember what's important. MSN Encarta recently published an article that describes some of the best scientific memory tricks. Here's a blurb:
"Biologically speaking, we actually have two kinds of memory: short-term memory and long-term memory. Think of them as the front room and the back room.

The front room is what we're actively dealing with at any given moment. Call it consciousness. This room is small: Only seven or eight items fit in there at a given time, and nothing can stay in there for more than a few seconds. The back room is a warehouse. For all practical purposes, it's infinitely large. Incredibly enough, everything we ever learn or experience gets stored in long-term memory, and once it's there, it's there for life.

The question is, once a piece of information goes into that dusty back room where trillions of items are already stored, how do you find it again when you need it?"
Check out the full article to learn the twelve strategies that answer this question.
