1 hour per week. Students will be required to do flashcards 10-15 minutes a day for the days in between the two classes and take a few notes on how it went each day.Class Experience
In this class students will learn how to use research-based methods to streamline the memorization process. It doesn't matter if it's language vocab, math, science, anything, we can make it easy to learn if we just use smart methods. This class will focus primarily on the method of Short Repetition Spacing(SRS). We will learn how this method was developed, why it works, and then we will apply it to whatever things you might be trying to memorize(if you aren't memorizing anything right now I'll give you some choices). This class will meet twice. One time to go over the information and teach you how to use it. Then a second time later in the same week to see how it's going and to get any questions answered that we might have. Class 1 - 55 minutes 1. How was SRS invented? - 10 minutes 2. Why does it work? - 10-15 minutes 3. Let's apply it - 30-35 minutes (we will have both physical and digital versions of SRS to use and we will plan on trying both) Class 2 - 25 minutes 1. How is it working for you? 2. How to continue on.
Learning Goals
1. How was SRS made?
2. Why is SRS useful?
