This fully illustrated quick-read guide book will teach you a
revision and exam technique for essay-based exams that's so
staggeringly useful it's worth writing a book about. The Silver
String Technique combines 3 well established mnemonics (memory
strategies) into a cohesive blend that is perfectly suited to the
exam environment. It can be used by school students, university
students, and adults with a variety of learning styles. This book
will teach you how to: Write effective revision notes with the help
of printable worksheets that can be downloaded online. Condense
your notes to memory-jogging "mind keys" that can be scribbled down
at the start of an exam. This cuts exam pressure in half. Quickly
commit your revision notes to memory through rote learning and
visualisation. Reliably access memorised material by deliberately
'looking up' information in your head. Structure well formulated
essay answers by using factually rich "mind keys" that double-up as
essay plans.
A concrete example of using The Silver String Technique in
preparation for a hypothetical exam is provided throughout this
book to ensure that you can fully understand how to apply the
technique to your own revision.
This book can be read cover to cover in a matter of hours, less
if you skim read. But the reward is significant: significantly less
frustration at the memorisation stage, significantly less time
spent relearning facts that refuse to stick, and significantly less
worry over memory failure. Exams are only difficult when you lack
the appropriate tools. Here you will find the missing tool set.
Procrastination during the revision period is often the result
of uncertainty on how best to proceed rather than simply lack of
motivation or laziness. By providing step by step instructions on
each stage of the process, this book removes the uncertainty from
revision and replaces it with an empowering technique that will
increase confidence and reduce exam stress.
If you or your child are studying essay-based subjects like Law,
History, English, Religious Studies, Languages, Geography,
Sociology, Psychology, Business Studies, or Economics, this book
may prove to be the most sensible investment of money and time you
ever make.
Learn the technique. Use it. And then share the knowledge with
others.
