For history, I have to memorize about 14 peoples' names which are confusing, and what they did, and it's hard for me to remember them so do any of u have any ideas on how I can easily remember them??
Hi! Yeah memorising information like this for history can be challenging, Your best bet to truly understanding what these people did is making a table of the people in chronological/alphabetical order (make sure to choose an order, I'll tell you why this helps below). Your table can be something like this:
This helps becausea) In the table because its in a specific order you know - when youre missing a person and also its easier to narrow down who youre missing (they were in this time period/their name starts with this letter - depending on whether youve done chronologically / alphabetically).b) Since the name is right next to the accomplishments you can better associate acomplishment and person. Tip: make the things they've done into simple bullet points having key words/short sentences - you can expand on their accomplishments separately in paragraphs, but keeping your table smaller helps memorisation.Hope this helps!! Good luck for your exam :))
