Fegan Method of Learning is a basic guide to help parents and students approach new material with the confidence they need to be successful. In it, the author walks the student and teacher through a simple, but effective six-step process that simplifies the absorption and retainment of new skills and knowledge. This in turn also benefits the student in that the information and the skill are readily accessible for a longer time than using simple memorization techniques. It allows the student to draw on the knowledge and skills already present to explore something new. In this way, the student isn't always starting from scratch.
