Place Test Preparation And Place Exam Techniques With A Twist!
After all, what else is there to spice up the routine besides opening up your PLACE test study guide, memorizing a chapter or two and then repeating the process again the next day? Apparently, there’s a lot – and if you’re prepping for your PLACE exam, then these quirky study techniques might just make the difference between boring stuffy study and your Colorado teacher certification! PLACE Exam Memorization: A Rose by Any Other Name… A recent study from two German universities revealed that when it comes to optimizing memory recall, the secret may be just under our noses. Published in the journal Science, the study had a group of medical students memorize the location of card pairs on a computer screen. Half an hour later, the students went to sleep and received bursts of rose scents through masks they wore. After waking up and recalling the card pair locations, researchers discovered that: • Students improved their performance on the memory test by 13% - a great sign for PLACE exam takers who have trouble with memorization; • And scientists concluded that their improved performances (an average score of 97%, up from 86%) was not a result of practice, as test scores were lower when the students did not receive the rose scents. When it comes to PLACE test preparation, use this study for inspiration. Light a scented candle when studying your PLACE test study guide, and spray a rose-scented perfume on your pillow before you go to sleep. You’ll pass the PLACE test in no time! Exercise Does More Than Relieve PLACE Exam Stress Plenty of PLACE test practice guides highlight the importance of getting exercise to reduce testing stress. But recent studies have revealed that there’s more to exercise and PLACE test preparation than meets the eye… …According to a study conducted by Northwestern Medicine, the higher a student’s weight, the worse their memory recall. By linking the hormone cytokine (which can be found in certain types of body fat) to cognition levels, researchers revealed that those with higher levels of cytokine scored worse on memory tests than those with low levels of cytokine. So when it comes to studying your PLACE test study guide, what does it all mean? Regular exercise can reduce your stress levels AND your cytokine levels. Since both can have an impact on your cytokine levels, this means that exercise is the key to effective PLACE (Program for Licensing Assessments for Colorado Educators) exam prep! Effective PLACE Test Preparation is Just a Click Away! Effective PLACE exam test prep doesn’t have to be boring and stuffy. In fact, these studies prove that even the wildest and most inventive prep methods can still have a huge impact!
