To Remember Mnemonics seek to use a range of these resources. By coding language and numbers in sophisticated, striking images which flow into other strong images, we can accurately and reliably code both information and the structure of information to be easily recalled later. There are mnemonic techniques that enable you to use all of your mind to remember information, and a few of the most effective emory techniques currently available are discussed in the article Memory Part Two. Many are quite simple and easy to understand and use. Others are more sophisticated, and require a significant investment of time before their huge potentials can be realised.
Most people believe that their memories get worse as they get older.
Conversely the more it is neglected, the worse it gets. While in education most people have to use their memories intensively - simply to remember facts and pass exams. When people leave full time education, they tend to cease to use their memory as actively, and so it starts to get flaccid. How Memory Works Memory works by making links between information, fitting facts into mental structures and frameworks. The more you are actively remembering, the more facts and frameworks you hold, the more additional facts and ideas will slot easily into long term memory.
