How I Get TOP GRADES With ENCODING & ACTIVE RECALL - A Practical Step-By-Step Guide

In this much requested video I share my screen and walkthrough step-by-step how I use encoding and active recall to learn new content in a practical step-by-step guide to show you how I get top grades with encoding. I jump back in time to one of the hardest exams I ever had to sit - my membership to the royal college of surgeons and I'm going to be showing you how I was able to learn a huge amount of information efficiently and effectively and get top grades using a pretty unique method.

I use #encoding combined with #activerecall to learn #newcontent and I break down the complex topic of encoding into simple and easy to understand practical techniques which you can use right now to help you learn faster and more effectively.

I'm going to show you a really practical example of how I reduce my cognitive load and use encoding to learn. I screen-share my mac pro screen and iPad so you can see the actual techniques that I use which got me top grades.
