Excessive learning, also known as "excessive memory", is a term in educational psychology, which refers to the memory that continues to be memorized after completely correct reproduction. Excessive study is conducive to the maintenance of memory materials, but we should also understand the truth that "too much is not enough".
Excessive learning theory was put forward by H. Ebbinghaus, a famous German psychologist. Its main meaning is that if a person wants to master what he has learned, he must always remind himself that it can be consolidated through repeated practice. Ebbinghaus made the earliest experimental study on this effect. Overlearning effect generally occurs in memory learning and discrimination learning.
Ebbinghaus's "excessive learning" is actually "moderate intensity learning". One of the consequences of excessive study is to damage the health of teenagers. Some data think that "human potential is infinite."
In fact, it is not correct. As a physiological organ of human body, the human brain also has its physiological load limit. If you exceed this limit, you can recover in a short time, and after a long time, you will form fatigue injuries, such as neurasthenia, dizziness, vomiting, insomnia and so on.
Many middle school students' neurasthenia is related to excessive brain use. With the decrease of brain use after middle school, many cases of neurasthenia that happen to middle school students will disappear automatically.
