Andi Bell

I learned through this video that we have many different neuropath ways to information, and some of those path ways can be destroyed by use of alcohol, or just by not revisiting that pathway for long periods of time. I also learned that by associating words or phrases to a very well known place it can open up more pathways. I think it is amazing that Andi Bell can use this technique to remember multiple decks of cards.

I often have trouble remembering people’s names, often I have to repeat them in my head or write them down and point to where they sit in reference to me. If I attempted to use Andi’s technique I might be able to remember name’s by associating those people to rooms in my house, or places around Red Deer. When I become a teacher I will definitely try to use this to remember student’s names in my class.

I do not think this technique would work in all situations, such as remembering long phrases or terms for a science class.
