Probably the last entry in the old style, old skin, old content
Yes, i intend to do a major overhaul to this blog. Beside doing my usual "god knows what" posting, i will have more bitching stories. in the meantime, maybe i blog about something more relevant... ty's cheat sheet theory. As some of you have known, i am a fan of cheat sheet. if i do ever become a teacher, i will have cheat sheet exam. meaning, i will allow my students to bring in only 1 piece of paper. i don't really care how they are going to squeeze. some teachers practice that too. Though not proven scientifically, cheat sheet is known to bring up class averages. It is actually quite commonsensical and intuitive if you think of the theory that goes on behind it. Or at least, it what i think it is. Firstly, your lifeline is only on 1 piece of paper, the resource is scarce. naturally that will make a person think of what are the most important thing to stuff onto the paper as it is impossible to have everything. secondly it forces you write down what you think is the most important point and that in itself has been proven the most effective way to remember--- write it down. thirdly, it takes alot of time and alot of rewriting and reorganizing to prepare a good cheat sheet. and by the time the final version is out, you will have way revised the content well enough. and by the time you walk into the exam hall, what is stopping you? personally for me, i have been doing "cheat sheet" since secondary school. i actually develop my style from mind maps, basically, my cheat sheet is the core of my mind map and each brand is actually another standalone cheat sheet by itself and it keep branching out until... the whole txtbook? hahaha... but so far it has served me well... (probably bcos i am doing weirdo maths module).
