Skimming is a process of speed reading that involves visually searching the sentences of a page for clues to the main idea or when reading an essay, it can mean reading the beginning and ending for summary information, then optionally the first sentence of each paragraph to quickly determine whether to seek still more detail, as determined by the questions or purpose of the reading.
Speed learning is a collection of methods of learning which attempt to attain higher rates of learning without unacceptable reduction of comprehension or retention.It is closely related to speed reading, but encompasses other methods of learning, such as observation, listening, conversation, questioning, and reflection.

Without adequate sleep, the neurons "can no longer function to coordinate information properly, and students lose the ability to access previously learned information." [34] A study of graduate pharmacy students showed 81.7% of students failed to get 7 hours of sleep on the night before an examination. [35]
In motor skill learning, an interval of sleep may be critical for the expression of performance gains; without sleep these gains will be delayed. [8] Procedural memories are a form of nondeclarative memory, so they would most benefit from the fast-wave REM sleep. [7] In a study, [9] procedural memories have been shown to benefit from sleep.

Like methadone, Suboxone blocks both the effects of heroin withdrawal and an addict’s craving and, if used properly, does it without causing intoxication. Unlike methadone, it can be prescribed by a certified family physician and taken at home, meaning a recovering addict can lead a normal life, without a daily early-morning commute to a clinic.
Young woman asleep over study materials. The relationship between sleep and memory has been studied since at least the early 19th century.Memory, the cognitive process of storing and retrieving past experiences, learning and recognition, [1] is a product of brain plasticity, the structural changes within synapses that create associations between stimuli.
