What are some methods that can help you retain information in long term memory?

Question

Describe three ways to improve the process of storing information from short-term memory to long-term memory.

Answer 1

You can retain more information through repetition. A better way to retain information is through the distribution of practice effect. The best way to remember information is when you relate it to something familiar. If the information is coherent and structured it will be easier to remember and relate it to something familiar.
