We can find challenges in every sphere of our lives. Be it finding the best
route to a cinema hall on traffic packed roads or choosing the right item in a
super market.
How best are we equipped to deal with challenges is the question?
Reasoning Ability is a systematic process of thinking where a problem or
plan is analysed from various angles in its most practical sense. Hence
yields better decisions and better conclusions.
That’s why every student’s Reasoning Ability is tested in almost every
competitive exam today.
The process of learning is dependent on one’s ability to think logically and
reason quickly and effectively. These two factors are hence very crucial to a child’s progress in
education.
This critically important ability of reasoning should be seeded and nurtured in the minds of the students
in their budding stage itself. Once the seed of reasoning sprouts in the young minds, the way they see the
world entirely changes. Life itself looks like an exciting puzzle to be solved.
Reasoning and logic skills are an integral part of a wide range of subjects such as Math, Science,
Design and Technology, etc. These skills are also vital in our day to day lives.

we do afterwards.
The practical application of these principles to the problem of
overcoming retroactive and proactive inhibition is as follows.
Go to bed after studying in the evening, rather than taking
up any further activities.
Revise the material in the morning before the activity of the
day makes you forget too much of it.
Avoid other mental work, especially of a similar kind in the
event that you cannot go to bed after studying.
Take a brief rest before studying lesson rather than engage
in other mental activity, especially similar mental activity.
Finally, the most important cause for forgetting is ‘repression’
(unconscious forgetting). There are various ways in which a
repression can be undone, thus helping us to remember better.
We can rely upon the ‘repressed’ memory occurring to us
spontaneously.
We can repeat or imagine ourselves repeating the situation
in which we first experienced what we want to recall.
We can make use of free association, writing down whatever
Solution:
that occurs to us until we recall the ‘repressed’ memory.
We should also make use of any available association in
committing something to memory. Two ideas may be
associated if they resemble or contrast with each other, or __________ __________ ___________
if they simply occur together.
