Study Strategies

Active Recall and Mind Mapping

Boost Your Memory

Active recall means testing yourself on what you’ve learned instead of just rereading notes. Mind mapping helps you organize and connect ideas visually.

How to Use These Strategies

  • After reading, close your book and write down what you remember.
  • Draw a mind map linking big ideas and details.
  • Quiz yourself regularly to strengthen your memory.

These methods make studying biology more fun and help you remember information for the long term!

Examples

  • Drawing a mind map connecting 'cell', 'nucleus', 'mitochondria', and 'photosynthesis'.

  • Making flashcards about the steps of cellular respiration and quizzing yourself.
