What Chapter 1 covers
- Four things memory does with new material: taking it in, storing it, recalling it and forgetting it
- How well something is stored compared with how easily you can recall it today
- Why material that looks familiar may still be material you cannot produce
- Why forgetting is normal, what it tells you to review, and how recalling something changes the memory
- What sleep after learning does, and how large the benefit is
- The Recall Test, which shows which parts of your material you can recall and which only look familiar
