how does active recall work?
active recall is a method of studying where you actively stimulate your memory during the learning process. instead of passively reviewing notes or textbooks, you test yourself on the material, forcing your brain to retrieve information. this process strengthens your memory and enhances your understanding of the subject.
the principle behind active recall is simple: the more you practice retrieving information, the better you become at remembering it. this technique involves:
asking yourself questions about the material.
summarizing information without looking at your notes.
using flashcards to test your knowledge.
teaching the material to someone else.

love me like you say you will ❦
"Side by side, they were very much alike, in similarity less of lineament than of manner and bearing,
a correspondence of gesture which bounced and echoed between them so that a blink seemed to reverberate, moments later, in a twitch of the other's eyelid.
Their eyes were the same color of gray, intelligent and calm. She, I thought, was very beautiful, in an unsettling, almost medieval way which would not be apparent to the casual observer.“
~ Donna Tartt, The Secret History
