Our topical Magic Memory Outlines are now also available as templates. Rigos is the only
course in the world that offers outlining templates which students use to create their own
personal outlines of the subjects. The student summarizes and synthesizes the textual
material in their own words. This transfers the information from the book to the student's
mind and personalizes the knowledge base. For students who have prepared outlines to
condense vast amounts of material in college, these templates are extremely effective. The
Magic Memory Outline templates are a free addition to the textbook material.
The following is a partial example of our Magic Memory Outlines:
