[Update April 18 from Kim:In an effort to give full disclosure to future students I\'d like to let you know that I\'m undergoing treatmentfor Stage 4 Lymphoma. I hope and aimtomake a full recovery by next year!This meansI\'m not able to participate as an instructor as much as I\'d like to but students have excellent reviews of my courses and asksurprisingly few questions - I hope that means that my courses are complete enough without needing lots of clarification. Please remember there is a money backguarantee so if you purchase my coursethen decide you would needmore instructor input you can utilise that feature. So remember life is short -take the course - learn the skills - makethe move-do the thing - eat the cake - and rememberto always check that what you are doing makes you happy!]The Memory Palace technique, AKA the Method of Loci is a very powerful tool for us mortal humans to learn vast amounts of facts, figures, lists and words that seem impossible. This course guides you to be able to use the Method of Loci by building your own imaginary journey and associating memorable images with each place. You don\'t need to have an amazing memory like Rain Man and you don\'t need to take hours reciting - you just need the ability to visualise and the willingness to learn!We\'ll actually apply the method by memorising Asia\'s countries and their capitals in alphabetical order. At the end you\'ll be able to reel off the countries and their capitals forwards, and often backwards too! You\'ll know that Azerbaijan\'s capital is Baku and that South Korea\'s capital is Seoul - without Googling it! We\'ll look at applying this method to anything you want to memorise in the future, and discuss how creating a memorised list becomes a \'frame\' that future learning can be built upon - memorising a structure within a subject makes learning the rest of that subject easier and more interesting.I\'ve built this course using pictures and occasional animations to help the memorable visualisations stick in your head easier, and I\'ve provided links to supplementary information should you wish to further your learning both for the geography element and the Method of Loci technique, BUT I\'ve deliberately kept the course quite short in time - I want you to see how quickly you can memorise things and I want you to have more time to go out afterwards and apply your new memorising technique. Heres the course outline:IntroductionDiscuss the Method of Loci Lets create our first Memory Palace journeyMapping out our journey (you will need paper and pens)Asia - Afghanistan to IndonesiaRecapAsia - Iran to North KoreaRecapTest yourselfCreate an additional stage to our Memory Palace journeyAsia - South Korea to PakistanRecapTest yourselfAsia - Philippines to Saudi ArabiaCreate the last stage to this Memory Palace JourneyAsia - Singapore to YemenRecapTest YourselfUsing your new memorised information as a frame for learningCreating more Memory Palace journeysI can\'t wait to help you to learn this amazing, powerful technique.
