I have a method that works really well.
I only read books on kindle, and i use kindle highlights. After I finish a book, I usually wait about 1 month or so, then I download the kindle highlights and turn them in to Anki flash cards and review them every day.
The type of cards i make are
1. vocab i didnt know
2. interesting paragraphs
3. other examples using cloze
SMS works, and this method definitely works, but it's a lot of work. One really good thing that comes out of this is even if I cant recall exactly what I wanted, I always can remember the book it came from and the kindle highlights give me the page number to go read it again.
- qumpis 3y agoI guess this isn't applicable for technical books, i.e. you don't read them on a kindle?
- misiti3780 3y agoI do not read them on kindle, but it works with technical concepts. Check this out http://augmentingcognition.com/ltm.html http://augmentingcognition.com/ltm.html
- insickness 3y agoAnki for the win! There's nothing like it if you want to retain large amounts of detailed knowledge.
- Mxbonn 3y agoMy approach is similar! However, my cards are more made for spaced reading than for spaced repetition studying. As such, each card just corresponds to a highlight. (Also replace Kindle with Google play books)
