If this is goingto be a useful technique to you to use in this class, you needto jump on it and get going on it immediately. If you are not going to write out the answers, then you mightas well just make flash cards because there are some advantagesof flash cards. You can sort them into things you know and thingsyou don't know. But the thing that really makes a teaching machine a more effectivemechanism or memorization is that you write out the answers. Thatmeans you don't put stuff on there that you don't need to memorize.
Some people are compulsive, and they have to put everything onthere.
And they are putting on there things that they alreadyknow. And when you have a bunch of things that you already know,you are going to pissed off when you go down to write the thingout, and you are not going to write it out, and pretty soonyou are going to stop using the machine, and it's not going tobe any better than flash cards. The other thing is to think about, how do you need to memorizethis stuff. But you cannot assume that,or you cannot assume that you are only going to be answering onlymultiple choice questions on this material. And if you are going to writing an essay on the material thenyou are going to have to produce that word out of your own memory.
