[13:44] Retelling improves memory retention, supported by research on repeated recall

strengthening pathways.

 

Nina Sunday explains, "I came across the principle of memory which is recall of an

item of information increases the likelihood of subsequent recall. And what how

it was explained. It's like for each recall of an item of information, the

brain cell connections or the brain pathway is being created. And so each time

you recall that same item of information, it travels down the same pathway in

the brain.


We've got an unlimited number of pathways, but creating the neuronal pathway

for that item of information, makes it more likely to be subsequently recalled.

 

In other words, we remember what we have remembered; and

the act of recall creates the brain cell connections. Brain cells that fire

together, wire together.

 

Retelling serves as a memory aid, and also a test for how

well you remembered and understood the information." 


[17:14] Benefits of speed reading for personal and professional life, emphasizing

lifelong learning.
