#### Refer to other understood concepts and memories to tie in new info with correct semantic usage --- Building off of what you already have established is an effective way of building new information off of an existing context or node of information. [[Context clues help short circuit the jump to recall and reduces neuron activity for recall in a wrong direction which can cause interference]] A Great example is learning what Pi is. Pi or $\pi$ or $3.14$ is used to measure the circumference of a circle. That is an understood concept, maybe you might also have a relevant memory of this, but to build off of the concept you could say that to find the diameter of a circle you use Pi (The understood concept) in a new formula (New input to add to knowledge) $\pi r^2$ [[Relate personal information to the memorization target this can prevent interference and is easier to recall]] --- Tags: [[Learning]] - [[Memory]] - [[Memorizaton]] - [[Spaced Repetition]] - [[Knowledge Formation]] Reference: [[( 2020-09-09 Effective Learning Twenty Rules of Formulating Knowledge]] Related: - [[( 2020-09-04 Want to Remember Everything You'll Ever Learn Surrender to This Algorithm]]
