Flashcards are a great tool for memorizing just about anything and they are simple to create. Just write a term on one side of an index card and the term's definition on the other side. Once you have a stack of them, you can quiz yourself to see which ones you know, putting the ones you knew in one pile and the ones you didn't in another pile. Even if you didn't know any of the terms before you started making the cards, you'll find that through the process of creating the cards you actually learned several of them.
