My group talked about the significance of memorization and it’s usefulness in both high school and college. In high school, the curriculum wasn’t as challenging which allowed students to just pass classes with memorization. In college, you’re kinda forced to study and understand the information in order to pass the test and the class. Memorization is beneficial to some extent because you use it every day remembering homework and what you need to get done, but its not beneficial in the long run. In high school, going through units and information memorizing it for the test is pointless because as soon as you take the test all the information is forgotten about. In college, the professors want you to understand the information and you should want to understand it as well considering you’re paying for the class. High school teachers are more lenient on information because most of the classes are general education classes that everyone needs to take. In college you get to confine your classes down to what best suits you and learn the information that will help benefit your future.
