The tips begin at a different place in each module. The advice moves along with the stages of the course.

Maintenance rehearsal involves repeating information without thinking about its meaning or connecting it with other information. While maintenance rehearsal can help you keep information in your working memory, it is not an effective way to transfer the information into long term memory. A better path to long term memory is through elaborative rehearsal. Elaborative rehearsal involves thinking about the meaning of the information and connecting it to other information already stored in memory.
