Products Marketplace / Product Partners / Way to super memory : Sequential memory linking technique
|
on: April 09, 2009, 04:13:13 AM

This is a 3000-years-old technique traced all the way back to the early Greeks. Back then, public speakers had the ability to remember tremendous quantities of information and relay it to the waiting crowds. How did they do it? They did it by linking their stories together with the help of visual metaphors. Today, experts in child development and accelerated learning call this technique, " Image Memory Training", " Memory Linking" or " Clustering." Today, it's used in hundreds of schools throughout Asia with tremendous success. (Throughout this topic, we'll refer to it as "Memory Linking.") Using this method develops the imaging power of the right brain mind, helping you naturally gain access to the same creative resources that some call a "flash of genius". As odd as it may sound, the memory linking technique also helps children become accustomed to thinking habits that go beyond common sense logic. According to experts, developing "out-of-the-box" thought processes accesses right brain imaging power and ignites abilities that can lead to great discoveries or unique solutions to problems that defy logical reasoning. One way to utilize this method is explained by Dr. Shichida, Director of over 400 Child Academies in Japan: "In our classrooms," he says, "the teacher places 10 different pictographic cards on a whiteboard. The student starts to connect the cards to each other with a story, which creates a picture in the mind facilitating memorization." He says with practice, "Students no longer need the verbal connections. They can easily remember 40 to 50 images. For many kids even 100 cards aren't a problem." Don Campbell, in his book, Rhythms of Learning, says of Memory Linking: "While short-term memories can be stored as images, they are often stored by sound, especially in the recall of words and letters. In general, short-term memory has the ability to hold about seven bits of information. When related groups of information are bonded together, they may be remembered as one bit of information, and the volume that can be stored increases." In our research, we found that when humor or silliness are utilized with this method, almost anyone can remember 100 or more objects in perfect sequential order and usually very quickly. That's when we came up with the game, Silly Story. We found that telling children funny nonsensical stories to tie images together proved a very effective way of teaching anyone (even the very young) to accurately remember large amounts of information in sequential order. Games to improve your memory like this use an ancient but simple concept. Yet in practice it can net very positive results in children and adults when used according to recommendations.

Products Marketplace / Product Partners / How to train your child in speed reading?
|
on: April 09, 2009, 04:07:28 AM

The best speed reading courses contain eye-tracking exercises and games that activate right brain function such as imaging and mass memory acquisition. In Makato Shichida's Child Academies, we'll find young children flipping through books at high speed, taking tests on the book's subject matter, and getting high test scores. Traditionally, such exercises are conducted in a classroom environment. Stephen Christman’s, a pschologist at the University of Toledo, research has independently shown that such eye movements improve recall memory. Christman said that he first came up with the idea to look at the effects of eye movements on memory after learning that leftward eye movements activate the right brain hemisphere and that rightward movements activate the left hemisphere. He thought that horizontal eye movements might, therefore, improve memory by helping the hemispheres interact. Memory Magic: Follow That Dot computer game helps to strengthen eye-tracking, stimulate and activate right brain function such as imaging and mass memory acquisition. They also create strong connections between the right brain and the left brain's conscious recall function. In short, true speed reading is your ability to store the "image" of pages or blocks of text through your right brain mind, and later be able to recall the information from those pages through your conscious left brain mind. Strengthening Our Eye MusclesTo strengthen our eye muscles, we want use their unique eye-tracking exercises and games. They strengthen and expand the muscles used for vertical, horizontal, diagonal, global and field of vision. When we strengthen our eye muscles in this way, we're able to image faster and store larger blocks of text at a time. And, by using these accelerated learning techniques, we form strong connections between our subconscious right brain function and conscious left brain function, which leads to speed reading. In addition, using these particular exercises and games are great for young children, those with eye-tracking difficulties of any age or learning ability.

Rapid Flashing: A Key To Unlocking Genius Research into Rapid Flashing and Flash Card Games According to research and work with thousands of children, researchers, such as Glenn Doman of The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential, proved that children, who did not have predestined inborn genius capabilities, were yet able to develop them by having clear, accurately rendered pictures and information presented to them with the greatest possible speed. They discovered that young children can be taught anything and everything if they are provided the right environment and techniques. We call this accelerated learning method: Rapid Flashing. In addition, education experts in other parts of the world proved that extraordinary abilities can be developed in ordinary children by quickly displaying flash cards with one fact and picture at a time. They found abilities such as rapid calculating abilities and photographic memory emerge when both left and right brain function is properly stimulated and developed. These natural abilities are possible because the right brain's mass-memory, automatic processing capability allows instant absorption of photographic images, tactile objects and sound bites. The left brain provides systematic, logical and orderly thought functions. When both are coupled together through strong neural networks, instant genius abilities can manifest as well as an increase of creativity. Our Accelerated Learning Flash Card Games The computer and printed rapid flash card games we carry on our site were carefully designed to help increase neurological stimulation and development between the left brain right brain hemispheres. They can enhance a child's natural abilities in early word/sound/object recognition, comprehension and vocabulary. They also can help unlock abilities such as rapid thought processes and photographic memory in those of any age and learning ability. According to accelerated learning child education expert Dr. Makato Shichida, rapid flashing changes the neural networks of the brain. A huge quantity of input (right brain) creates positive changes in the quality of output (left brain). In effect, you can become a creative genius!

Thanks a million for running extra miles for partners like us. We are indeed honored to be part of this community. I also saw a thread mentioned acceleratedlearningmethods.com. They are the developer of Memory Magic games. In fact, WINKtoLEARN.com is their official exclusive licensee in South Asia. This is a small world. I will post some information about the Shichida techniques used in the Memory Magic games. Alternatively forum members may like to come online to our website to view some free video demonstrations on their games.

welcome all! Yes, indeed. we are a bunch of parents who all believe in early education. A quote that keeps us inspired: Learning is a reward, not a punishment. Learning is a pleasure, not a chore. Learning is a privilege, not denial. Let our children know that they are the most fortunate ones in the world whereby their dads and mums spend time with them and giving them this gift of learning! Cheers! Hazel (A proud member of www.WINKtoLEARN.com - the place whereby your child makes friends with words!)
