To recall a structure, process or other concept, it helps
to be able to mentally visualize whatever it is you are trying to remember. This is why good textbooks have many figures. Even broad and complex concepts can be visualized when related to the real world, or figures illustrating the real world.
In addition, if you have taken care to write words carefully forming clear and legible letters, it is easier to visualize and remember the words. If you have clearly printed the word out, your memory can visualize or picture the word itself.
The next step would be to visualize what that word or term stands for in the real world. One technique for visualizing certain terms is to prepare
flash cards. On one side of a flash card is the term, on the back side
could be a drawing, flow chart, color photo or line drawing that accurately
depicts the term.
