Besides review, the other piece of the puzzle for long term memory storage is to create as many 'hooks' to the new information as possible. To create as many mental associations or connections to that material as possible. This way the mind has many more 'pathways' to travel on to find a needed piece of information. The 'mosaic' type layout of the information on the blueprint fills this need by relating the new ideas visually, spatially. The rest is background and connective material.
Books place a totally unrealistic demand on visual memory.
We have to make a visual memory 'snapshot' of each page if we want to remember it all. In my opinion, large, unified displays that employ graphics as well as text can do a better job. The graphic design principles I've employed are taken from Yale information designer, Edward Tufte's, masterpiece, Envisioning Information . Optimum use of the visual apparatus is the centerpiece of this curriculum. Hearing is their preferred mode of information gathering.
