Learning theories help us understand the process of learning, how the learning material should be represented, how it should be repeated for good retention, and how it is processed by the brain

About accelerating the learning process:

- mnemonic techniques: mind mapping, [peg lists]?, loci?
- [formulating knowledge for learning]?
- spaced repetition
- incremental reading

About the mechanisms of memory and learning:

- [neural networks in the brain]? (see also: neural networks)
- synapse
- hippocampus? vs. neocortex?
- sleep and learning
- memory consolidation
- [short-term memory]? vs. [working memory]?
- long-term memory
- declarative memory vs. procedural memory
- molecular mechanisms of memory
