Unlocking Your Dynamic Memory teaches the memory skills which are the backbone of Accelerated Distance Learning. In this interactive session, you will learn how to use memory tools such as the 'peg" system to significantly increase your memory potential and how to use these tools in specific areas of academic study. In academics, work, or everyday life, the skills learned in Unlocking Your Dynamic Memory will prove to be an invaluable resource.
