How to split large note
Hi!
I'm trying to learn for my history test with anki. But I'm facing a
problem here:
To effectively remember the cards, the answers can't be longer than
one sentence.
But how do I cut a card like this in multiple one sentence cards? I
thought of enumerating the parts and
ask for the numbers ('What is the first reason for the
revolution?'), but I don't think that'd work well.
'What are the reasons for the german revolution?' - The need for liberty - The poverty - The censorship - The people want a nation - etc...

This is *One* of techniques I found and adopted .
1. List the keywords: Liberty, Poverty, Cens, Nation
Keep in mind: while you are doing it - you are *remembering it better*; it is not a wasted time.
2. Compose a Mnemonic word using letters LPCN; PiNnaCLe would work.
3. Associate Pinnacl with Revolution - easy to do.
Done. You have your prompt. You spent some time *thinking* about the subject !
It works like a charm.
PS. There are more Mnemonics techniques and other tips; if I've picked your interest - ask for more details.
Good luck with your History.

It is the right place.
Mnemonics are great, but it's still more efficient to break up information into more cards when possible. From a card-creating perspective, here are some thoughts:

Sorry that I didn't answer earlier, I had some stress recently and kind of forgot this thread.
Thanks for these tips, I'll experiment with them and find out what works for me :)
I can't post examples here really well because they're in german and if I translate them that alters the problem but thanks for the offer :)
