Visualization, memory, reading and research skills
Managing pauses when we learn is an important skill nobody talks about. Below is a recommended superlearner strategy inspired by a discussion on our udemy course. Recently there was a very discussion on udemy (below) regarding small pauses we have when we learn. My personal opinion that we should use these pauses as one would …

When you mastered speedreading, slow reading is not an easy task. We describe the reasons for slow reading, the difficulties that rise when reading slowly and how to deal with them.

High-level chunking allows to operate with up to 80 object in your working memory, using computer-like data structures. Since the size of working memory is correlated with IQ, this actually make you smarter. When dealing with large amount of information you may choose several strategies to encode it. High level visualization is probably the most …
This is a basic and deep post that could be added to the course. It requires a bit more time and effort than a regular post on this site. I do suggest to visit all the links within and think about integrating it in your superlearning skillset. During the course we teach our students to …

We have anecdotal statistics showing that the superlearning students improve their test scores significantly, over multiple criteria. Time management, language skills and problem solving abilities score higher. Below are some explanations. Language skills Many …
