Use appropriate techniques. How to understand and memorize new materialThere are many techniques to help you understand and remember new material. It is important for everyone to know which techniques are right for them and make their lessons more productive.
Many students are aided in memorizing material by constant self-testing. It is not for nothing that in most textbooks you can find a list of questions after each chapter just for self-testing. Depending on what you are studying, you can make up these questions yourself, or find them on the Internet or in textbooks. Alternatively, you can ask friends or relatives to ask you questions.
Some people also find it helpful to memorize new information by talking out loud. It is not a matter of reading a textbook or an article aloud. After you've studied some material, imagine that you need to tell another person everything you've learned and say it out loud.
