== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> ==
* '''Retrieval Practice''' — The act of trying to recall information you have learned in the past.
* '''The Testing Effect''' — The psychological phenomenon where long-term memory is increased when some of the learning period is devoted to retrieving the information through testing.
* '''Active Recall''' — Another name for retrieval practice; the "Active" process of generating an answer.
* '''Passive Review''' — The "Inefficient" way to study: re-reading notes or highlighting (which creates the "Illusion of Competence").
* '''Brain Dump''' (Free Recall) — A technique where you take a blank piece of paper and write down "Everything" you can remember about a topic.
* '''The "Illusion of Competence"''' — When you "Feel" like you know something because it's "Right in front of you" in the book, but you can't remember it when the book is closed.
* '''Pre-Testing''' — Taking a test on a subject *before* you learn it (which makes your brain more curious and "Sticky" for the real information).
* '''Feedback''' — Knowing the "Correct answer" immediately after a retrieval attempt (essential for fixing mistakes).
* '''Cue''' — A "Hint" or "Prompt" that helps trigger the retrieval process.
* '''Consolidation''' — The biological process where "Retrieved" information is re-saved into the brain with stronger connections.
