A couple of quick questions, mainly confirmations, as I think I know the answers...

1. Is it a good idea to do Direct Learning multiple times with the same books? Does it help or hinder? (ie 3 or 4 DL sessions on the same topic with the same books)

2. I am planning on using DL to enhance my skills in computer programming. I have several books on languages that are kind of 'Complete Reference' kind of books with usage, syntax, et al. These tend to be ~1500 or more pages each. Does 1 1500 page book count the same as 3-5 300 page books?

I've used 20 books for my DL session, once for 5 was enough however I've noticed that more books on the topic was better, so doing the same books 3 or 4 times may well be worth the shot. Its a case of try it and see. the text book being asd thick as it is I would count as 3 however I'd get my hands on as many books as I can.

ngenjung,

When you prepare for each Photoreading/ Direct Learning session state your purpose slightly differently for each time you Photoread the same book over again. It's good to get as many angles as possible for mastery.
