Tip 1: How best to remember dates and events
Remembering dates and events separately is a taskcomplex. It is much more convenient to use special methods for this. For example, you can choose the main date, use linguistic techniques, look for parallels and associations.
Select the main date
If you want to remember the dates of a smallhistorical period, it is better to choose for yourself some kind of a major date and already bind the remaining events to it. For example, you need to remember several dates that fit within a time span of several decades. First you choose for yourself the basic date, which will be a kind of reference point. The rest of the dates you remember on the principle of "this event happened after so many years" or "this event happened for so many years before the main date." For example, the period of reforms of Alexander II. The main event to remember is the year 1861. Six years before that, the emperor had ascended to the throne, in three years he had launched judicial and zemstvo reforms, etc. This method of memorizing is quite convenient, but it requires working with the whole topic. You must understand the essence of the main events, their interconnection.Searching for Parallels
The dates of many historical events are similar. For example, the Battle of Grengham, like Gangutskaya, occurred on July 27, only in different years. The Battle of Poltava also occurred on the 27th, only in June. The Soviet territory was occupied by the German invaders from 1941 to 1944, and the war between Byzantium and Rus took place from 941 to 944. Looking for such "similar" dates and events, you can greatly facilitate their memorization.Linguistics
Specialists who study foreign languages oftenuse the following method of memorization. First they write down a new word on a piece of paper, periodically look through their notes and try to use this word as often as possible in their speech. If the method works in the case of foreign words, why not use it to remember the dates? Record dates and events in notepad and view your records in your spare time. It is enough to repeat the dates once a day, so that they are firmly fixed in memory. The minus of this technique is in the detachment of dates from their context. You will remember years and events, but you can not link them to each other.Associations
Another effective way to remember datesis to use associations. You can associate dates with telephone and car numbers, house numbers, common numerical stereotypes (lunch time, song "7:40", numbers from verses, and so on).Tip 2: How to quickly remember historical dates
Remembering the historical dates is necessary. Even at school, the student gradually learns about some or other global events of the past. Everyone happened at some time. It is important to learn easily and memorize figures for life, then there will be no difficulties in the history exam.
Associations
There are several ways to rememberhistorical dates. Each person can take his own weapon to the one that is closer to him. Associative is one of the simplest and most effective. Suppose you need to remember when the famous person was born. Like all people, he came into the world in a certain month, such a date and year. Think, maybe, one of your friends, relatives appeared to the world on this day, month, but in another year. If you are lucky, between the year of the birth of a celebrity and a friend, a relative passed 100,200, 1000 years. Now, when you will call the date of Alexander Pushkin's birth, then remember that your friend was born exactly 200 years later - in 1999. Hence, Alexander Sergeevich was born in 1799. This way it will be possible to repeat when birthdays have friends, and it's easy to remember the historical dates. Now, when you are going to answer what date, month, year the famous person was born, then you will begin to remember his "twin" -semician, with whom you will have his image connected. If there are not so many acquaintances , how many historical dates, then draw a parallel with what -So important event for you. For example, then your parents bought an interesting toy, you went with them for a certain number and month to the sea. These dates can also be compared with historical ones.Visual perception
Those who are accustomed to think figuratively, will approachnext method. It is necessary to make so that when recalling a particular historical event, vivid images associated with it appear in memory. They are easy to create. It will take a little more time, but the method is interesting. It will help even the kid to remember the necessary historical date. For example, he needs to learn when the Great Patriotic War began and ended. Let the child take a sheet of paper, paint or pencils and begin to create. He will depict Soviet soldiers in uniform with weapons, draw explosions, and in the foreground write a long date of the beginning and end of the war. Now, when it will be necessary to sound it, this figure with figures will pop up in his memory. This method is also effective for adults. They can make some unpretentious drawings by writing dates on them. Then you can draw such a picture only mentally. You need to learn no more than 3 dates at a time. Then relax, call these dates. If you remember them correctly, then it's time to proceed with the following: "Playing in historical dates" also helps them remember. So children and parents can spend time with advantage. The older ones will remember, and the younger ones will learn the necessary numbers, which, undoubtedly, will help them not only in school, the institute, but also in life.Tip 3: How to Improve Memory and Attention
Memory and attention are two invaluable gifts,which a person receives at birth. They help in life to fully orient and adapt. As a child, memory is very tenacious and easily absorbs, like a sponge, a large amount of information that occurs until about 25 years. In his youth, a person has an excellent concentration of attention. However, time passes and a period invariably comes when memory loses its elasticity, and attention becomes diffused. It turns out that there are special methods and methods of training that will help improve memory and attention.
