I came across an article about how a tiny, wearable digital camera could help people with memory loss. The camera takes a photo of whatever activity the wearer is doing every 30 seconds and these are played back at high speed later to jog the memory.
The research showed that even the emotions surrounding an event are recalled when the images are played back. This is a function of how our brains work. Scientists have shown that when we remember an event, our brains take us back there, almost literally, recreating the context that allowed us to form a memory.
So, next time you finish a chapter of Head First C#, Head First JavaScript , or Head First Software Development try a different track for review. Flip back through it, page-by-page, quite fast, just looking at the pictures and see how much of it (and the emotions it caused) you remember!
