Memory techniques lesson 20: Self-testing and teach-back · Set 188 · 40 questions

Memory tip (Pull it out to keep it in): Active recall: closed-book writing, quizzing with cards, teaching your sibling, answering old questions, covering the answers. Passive review: re-reading the chapter, highlighting everything, copying notes neatly, staring at the page. Teach-back: learn the topic → close the book → explain it simply → check what you missed. Wrong cards go back in the “again” pile: 30 − 7 right = 23.
