Active Recall for Environmental Science
Quizzing Yourself for Better Memory\n\nActive recall means testing yourself instead of just rereading notes. Ask yourself questions after studying a topic—try to remember what the water cycle is or how humans impact ecosystems without looking at your book. This strengthens memory and shows what you need to review.\n\n### How to Use It\n- Make flashcards with questions on one side and answers on the other.\n- Teach a friend or family member what you learned.\n- Use practice quizzes online.\n\nActive recall helps you remember key ideas and understand them better.
Examples
Making flashcards about the carbon cycle and testing yourself.
