Message-ID: <9607218406.AA840643459@hudsmtphq.hud.gov> Date: Wed, 21 Aug 1996 09:04:19 EST From: Michael Patterson <mailto:Michael_O._Patterson@HUD.GOV> Subject: language learning: a followup To: Multiple recipients of list DEVEL-L <mailto:DEVEL-L@AMERICAN.EDU>
Some of you will recall yesterday's message about ideas on learning languages more easily and thoroughly with less effort. I got the below in response to a sharing on another listserver, which lists apparently on-line versions of 4 books cited as resources in that piece. Just FYI, I know nothing more than what you see below.
Inspiring project. Here are URL's directly to Amazon.com for these books:
>I'd acquire or borrow 4 books.

>The Memory Book, Harry Lorayne, Jerry Lucas.

>Jerry Lucas played ball for the Celtics at one time. In college,
>he had little time to study, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa. What
>does that say to you? Lorayne memorized the NY City White pages,
>to show it could be done. The meat of the book is 20 pages, the
>rest is application.
>
>Superlearning, Sheila Ostrander.

>Education will be forever fun if they adopt these ideas. In the
>meantime, use the music during study. I wrote my 4th year Arabic
>final over 27 consecutive hours, and the music worked for me.
