All about Brain Glue
Scientists have shown we forget up to 80% of what we learn in 30 days. Want to make your learning stick? You need Brain Glue!
WHAT IS BRAIN GLUE?
Brain glue is a powerful set of techniques you can use to strengthen your learning.
We've scoured the latest scientific research to find the most effective ways to learn better.
How does it work?
We don't just want to tell you how to learn better. We want you to prove to yourself how effective good techniques can be.
Over the course of 7 practical sessions we'll introduce you to the key ideas and you'll be amazed at what you can do straight away.
We'll help you understand and internalise the techniques so you can apply them by yourself.
What will I learn?
Do you think you could remember the red-black order of an entire pack of cards? In your very first session you'll learn how easy (and fun) it really is—when you have expert guidance.
Sound impossible? We've taught this skill to 8 year-olds and grannies. They all do it with ease.
In the following sessions you'll see how to apply the principles in other contexts. You'll discover how your memory works and how to trick it into working better.
What Else?
By the end of the course you'll be equipped with a toolkit of killer techniques:
- 3 ways to remember anything better without working longer
- 5 ways to memorise vocab
- how to revise for important exams
- classic, proven techniques like mnemonics and chaining and memory palaces
- effective note taking
- how to use your smartphone for quality study
- the perils of the fluency illusion and how to avoid them
Any bonus points?
We'll also explain why a lot of common learning advice is wrong.
- Why you shouldn't highlight your notes and re-read them (even though this is the most popular study technique!)
- Why you shouldn't test yourself to find out what you don't know.
But the most important thing about Brain Glue is this:
The course will fast track you to a growth mindset: you'll realise that your potential isn't limited by 'natural' ability but by how you approach the goals you set yourself. This is the attitude fundamental to success in all fields, from academia to sport to music.
