🎓 How to Memorize History: The Begin of the Automobile Era with the Ford Model T

[flauwy]

Memorize the Begin of the Automobile Era with the Ford Model T and train your brain with memory techniques. Read more about the event on Wikipedia.

The Keyword for the event

---

Now we pick a keyword that reminds us of the event. When we later want to remember the date we will need to remember this keyword first. So make sure it is as easy as possible:

We can imagine the Ford Model T. It has that funny handle in the front.

The Major System for Dates

---

In this post we will use the Visual Major System to encode numbers into images.

Here is a quick reminder how this system works:

• We encode digits into consonants
• We pair the letters with phonetically similar consonants
• Vowels are free to create words
• Below on the graphic are the ten main letters

The Ford Model T = 1908

---

Since we know the century we can leave that out.

The Memory Story

---

Now we are connecting all elements: The keyword for the event and the Major System images for the numbers of the date. Try to keep it simple and visualize the story as you create it. Repeat it later to make the memory stronger.

The Model T is being released but when Ford wants to demonstrate the vehicle it doesn't work. So they take a rope to pull it into the garage.

Very cool 😎I definitely need to practice my memory, this was an interesting challenge and the technique really worked well for me, it definitely imprints much better with images !

[flauwy]

It works for basically everything. Don't worry, I will keep on posting about this topic and bombard Steemit with this until every single one has heard of it.
