ed20.info - how to learn in 20 minutes

Try out the software emulation of an "Old Style Reading Projector" to increase your reading speed and comprehension.

You can adjust the speed. Work up to a reading speed where you are unable to comprehend the article. That's when your mind begins to process and learn more! It's frustrating at first, but keep at it, as there will be an "aha" moment.

Begin with this article of 169 words. It takes 30 seconds to start your road to better, more enjoyable reading!

This article, though, will likely trip you up. It contains "folksy" sentences, questions that you want to pause to answer, and "hmm" vocalizations. Just read as fast as you can. Don't silently "speak" the words.

Here's another 32-second read at 325 words per minute. It contains simple facts.

Welcome to ed20^TM, the 20-minute learning method

based on current research from Learning How to Learn.

The technique:

First, place your fist of one hand into the palm of the other and say "palmadoro."

Begin learning without any distractions or interuptions for 20-minutes.

When 20-minutes is up, interlace your fingers of both hands, "weaving" your learning into stable memory.

Finally, open your hands like you are giving a gift and recite back what you learned in your own words.

That's how you may change your life through learning!

All the best,

Brenda, Editor

ps - I "learned how to learn" a year ago and put it to work on Verizon Skill Forward. I was able to complete entire courses that would take weeks in just days with passing grades.
