I'm having trouble studying for my exams and I'm looking for some new techniques to try. Have you heard of Elaborative Rehearsal?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, Elaborative Rehearsal is a study technique where you relate new information to something you already know or find meaningful. This helps create associations in your memory, making it easier to recall the information later.<|im_end|>

That sounds like it could be helpful. Can you give me an example of how to use Elaborative Rehearsal?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
For example, if you're trying to remember a historical date, you could think of a significant event in your own life that happened around the same time. This connection helps your brain store the information in a more meaningful way, making it easier to remember the date.<|im_end|>

That makes sense. I'll definitely try that out. Thanks for the help!<|im_end|>
