The Science of Smart Learning: Research-Proven Strategies to Study Smarter, Understand Deeper, and Remember Longer
by Rolando Asisten, Jr.
Why do some students forget what they study within hours, while others recall it months later? Why do some learners thrive on exams, while others struggle despite long hours of preparation?
The answer isn’t luck or talent—it’s strategy.
In The Science of Smart Learning, educator Rolando Asisten, Jr. blends real student stories with decades of research from psychology, neuroscience, and education. The result is a practical, evidence-based guide to learning that lasts.
Inside, you’ll discover:
Why rereading and highlighting fail—and what to do instead.
How retrieval practice, spaced repetition, and interleaving make knowledge stick.
Note-taking systems like the Cornell Method that turn lectures into learning tools.
Time management strategies, memory palaces, and the Feynman Technique.
How to prepare for finals, board exams, and lifelong learning challenges.
Each chapter combines science, stories, and step-by-step strategies you can use immediately—whether you’re a student, a parent, a teacher, or a professional.
Study smarter. Understand deeper. Remember longer.
This is not just another study guide. It’s your roadmap to lasting learning.
