Memory Techniques Workbook: Exercises for modern mnemonics
Nobody had written a modern memory textbook, so I wrote one. As a teacher, I knew that students need exercises to learn well. So, I wrote this one. You’ll find a set of over 100 exercises here from beginner to advanced levels following the same structured analysis in my Memory Techniques. But the big difference here is that they show you how to build skills easily with explanations and examples.
Where should I start and what are the next steps to take are common questions for students to ask. Should I learn the PAO I hear so much about or is the memory palace a better choice? There are so many other less advanced skills that are useful to learn but those and the very popular advanced techniques are all treated in a way that builds confidence and a powerful memory.
Variations of bestiaries, memory palaces, and the method of loci are all covered and shown how to use through examples, exercises, games, and projects. And advanced techniques of combining systems and using templated versions are explained. Finally, the steps to help you retrieve and review the images are detailed with additional info on how to improve your systems through exercises and recommendations.
You will learn how to visualize simple and complex images of all kinds of information. You'll discover how to store images in a mnemonic system of a peg list or a story, both easy to learn with many examples and exercises for each. The new SEA-IT system of categorizing visual images into subjects, elaborations, actions, items, and terrains makes these methodically designed exercises unique and more understandable.
