Memory is the foundation of our consciousness, allowing us to remember what we see, hear, or do. As a result, whatever is stored in the past is reproduced in the future.
I was introduced to mnemotechnics at the Genius X training in Tashkent. I became very interested in this technique. I began to study the technique on the Internet and gathered some good instructive ideas. I used it in my lessons, at a city conference, and in my classes at the support school. Indeed, mnemotechnics is a technique for developing thinking. The main thing - the technique helps you easily absorb the material you've learned.
The art of memorization was developed by medieval monks, who had to remember a huge number of liturgical texts. During the Renaissance, knowledge came to be considered a power, and the ability to keep knowledge in one's head was valued very, very highly. But what was the secret of these men? How did they recite speeches for hours without stuttering, remembering huge formulas and texts?
They used a special method of remembering information - mnemotechnics. Over the centuries it has undergone tremendous change, but its essence remains the same. The technique, which allows you to quickly and efficiently memorize large amounts of information has existed for over 2500 years.
But at the same time there is a paradox: why, when there is effective technology, it takes a child 3 weeks to memorize the countries of Europe, when it is done in 30 minutes? Why do people spend weeks to memorize the rules of the road instead of one evening? Why should a child go all day long to memorize a poem when it can be done in a few simple steps and get a good grade? Why cram the multiplication table when it can be understood and learned in two evenings? Why learn definitions and formulas when you can easily memorize them using mnemotechnics?
