Educators who are aware of "accelerated learning" techniques emphasize more studying through "intelligences" other than the typical verbal and logical. These other intelligences include visual (diagrams and other visual displays), musical (making rhymes or adjusting current tunes to remember the material), etc.

One example of such a study strategy has been promoted by Tony Buzan. It generally is an "appealing visual ouline": At the center of the page is encircled the main subject, with various subtopics "attached" to it (again inside a circle), plus "branches" of additional details. It would also include a humorous drawing near each subtopic to attract the attention of the student. (I'm not good at drawing to pull this off.)

Of course, Buzan stressed that this technique is more effective if made by the student who wants to take advantage of it, but why not make one for sale as a study guide for students who are naturally VISUAL leraners who may not expend the necessary effort to make them?

I emailed two accelerated learning organizations about this idea, but didn't get an email of appreciation. I'm only putting this on www.whynet.net to claim myself as the originator of this idea
