Whether you're headed back to school or just wanting to pick up a new skill like a language or an instrument, learning new things is amazing.
不管你是重回學校或者是要開始學習新的語言或是新的樂器,學習新事物是很新奇的。
-
But is there a better way to learn something quickly and retain that knowledge?
可是有沒有好的方法去更快的學習並記住這些知識呢?
-
First step is, skip the laptop.
第一個步驟,不要用筆電。
-
Though you might be quicker at typing, writing with pen and paper is the way to go when taking notes.
雖然打字比較快,用筆和紙做筆記還是比較好的。
-
Not only are there oodles of distractions online, but researchers have found that those who type process the information at a shallower level.
不只是因為網路上有大量令人分心的東西,研究人員也發現那些打字的人只能較淺層地去處理資料。
-
As opposed to simply transcribing verbatim, re-framing the information into your own words while writing out physically leads to better performance on tests.
如果不單單只是逐字逐句地抄寫,而是寫下自己重新整合的句子,在考試上會有比較好的表現。
-
And to retain those notes, study-sleep-study.
而為了要記住那些筆記,讀書-睡覺-讀書。
-
In a French experiment, two groups were taught the Swahili translation for 16 French words over 2 sessions.
在一個法國的實驗中,兩組受試者在兩個時段中被教導 16 個法文的斯華希裏語翻譯。
-
Group 1 studied in the morning, then took a break and studied again in the evening.
第一組在早上學習,然後休息一下,傍晚再繼續學。
-
But group 2 studied in the evening, slept for the night and then resumed studying in the morning.
不過第二組是在傍晚學習,睡了一晚,早上再繼續學習。
-
Though there was the same amount of time between the 2 study sessions, the sleep group could recall 10 of the 16 words while the no-sleep group could only get seven and a half.
雖然兩段學習的時間是相同的,睡眠組可以回想起 10 個單字,但沒有睡覺的那組只能回想起 16 個單字中的 7.5 個單字。
-
Learning a new motor skill?
正在學習一項新的動作技能嗎?
-
Try modifying your practice slightly.

-
A study of 86 healthy volunteers were asked to learn a computer-based motor skill over 2 training sessions.
有一個實驗要 86 位健康的志願者在兩段訓練時間中學習電腦技能。
-
One group's second training session had them learn the task in a slightly altered way, while the other repeated the task with the exact same practice.
有一組的第二段練習時間中,稍微改變了他們學習的方式,而另外一組則是重複一樣的練習。
-
Those who used two different strategies nearly doubled the speed of accuracy of the task compared to the control group.
跟對照組比起來,那些接受不同練習的人加快了完成任務的速度與準確性將近兩倍。
-
What does this look like in the real world?
這在現實世界中會是什麼樣子呢?
-
Say you're perfecting your tennis game, try switching between rackets with slightly different weights between sessions.
如果你在加強你的網球技能,試試看在不同的練習使用重量有些微差別的球拍。
-
However, researchers suggest you don't make the modification too big.
但是,研究人員建議不要有太大的變化。
-
For example, switching between tennis and badminton shows no increase success in tennis.
例如,交替網球拍跟羽毛球拍並不會對學網球有幫助。
-
Can't focus?
沒辦法專心?

-
Who isn't?
誰不是呢?
-
Try a mnemonic device such as an acronym sentence like "Raging Martians Invaded Venus Using X-ray Guns."
試試看一個幫助記憶的方法,像是藏頭句「憤怒的火星人用X光槍入侵金星。」
-
This method has been proven in several studies as a way of committing information to memory.
很多研究都證實這是牢記資訊的一種方法。
-
Why?
為什麼呢?
-
Theory suggests that adults can only hold a limited number of items in our short term memory.
理論指出,成人在他們的短期記憶中只能記住有限的東西。
-
By grouping items into a mnemonic, it allows your brain to hold onto larger amounts of information
把要記的東西整理成幫助記憶的口角,這讓你的大腦可以記住更多的資訊。
-
which can eventually aid into the creation of long term memories.
最終可以幫助形成長期記憶。
-
And the weirder the sentence is, the better
句子越奇怪越好。
-
as unique sentences have a higher chance of sticking than boring ones.
因為奇特的句子會比無聊的句子更有機會被記起來。
-
And, say it out loud.
大聲唸出來。
-
Test individuals were given a list of words where half were read silently, and the other half were read out loud.
一半的受試者默念,另外一半的受試者則是把單字唸出來。
-
When given a new list of words and asked to identify which ones they had already read previously,
當受試者被給予一張新的單字並被要求辨認哪些單字是之前讀過的。
-
they were able to recall the words read out loud with significantly more frequency than those read silently.
那些大聲唸出來的人跟默念的人相比起來,明顯的更能回想起這些單字。
-
Here's a no-brainer.
接下來這個步驟就滿明顯的。
-
Make sure you're hydrated.
確保自己水分補充足夠。
-
In a study where participants fasted and abstained from fluids since the previous evening, they were asked to perform on a reaction test.
在一項研究中,參與者在前一天晚上開始禁食並且禁止喝任何液體,他們被要求參加一個反應試驗。
-
One group was given 500 mL of water right before the test while the other group wasn't.
一組在試驗前給他們 500 毫升的水,另一組則沒有。
-
The group that was able to hydrate before the test obviously performed significantly better.
測驗前有喝水的那一組明顯表現比較好。
-
This is because water helps improve overall mental processing and learning.
這是因為水幫忙改善整體心理的活動與學習。
-
And after all that hard work, give yourself a reward.
在努力之後,給自己一個獎勵。
-
One study found that reward motivated-learning
一項研究發現獎勵會激勵學習,
-
—in this particular study it was monetary compensation—
研究中主要是用金錢獎勵。
-
led to increased memory formation, and this effect even increased when the reward was of higher value.
獎勵增加了記憶的形成,而且如果獎勵的價值越高,學習效果會更好。
-
This finding highlights how reward motivation promotes memory formation, via the release of feel-good neurotransmitter dopamine in the hippocampus prior to learning.
這個發現顯示出增加獎勵會促進記憶的組成,這是從學習前在海馬迴中釋放了較少的神經傳遞物質多巴胺所得知。
