The best way to study and learn is not defined by the medium of material but by accessing memory systems that offset forgetting.

Learning involves neuroplasticity, which is the ability of the nervous system to change in response to experience, and it includes the strengthening and weakening of neural connections.

The improvement in motor coordination from infancy to adolescence is largely due to the removal of neural connections, rather than the formation of new ones.

Neuroplasticity can occur through three mechanisms: strengthening connections, weakening connections, and neurogenesis, which is the addition of new neurons.

Recognizing errors in information retention is a valuable method for retaining more information, especially if the answer was incorrect.

Testing yourself on learned material is the best tool for offsetting forgetting, as it helps reinforce knowledge acquisition.
