mental imagery :: what can be accomplished

1. Use imagination and creativity

This exercise is designed to encourage you to use your imagination and creativity. By imagining yourself as an object, a person or animal to create a "firsthand" experience, you may be able to make associations between information gathered and your prior knowledge (knowledge you have before the research)

2. Allow Yourself t ask questions you might overlook

When you have a "First Hand" experience, you might have a better understanding of the topic you are researching. You may have doubts about the information, or you may realize what information you need to have in order to make sense out of something.
