背 has both positive and negative meaning, while some words basically carry only one.i have witnessed a person learned words by rote, and become a successful professor, while another one despised this way, losed job but gained by a different way.
A female switch board operator in a telephone company in Beijing in the past amazed us by remembering all local phone numbers, while many others even can not remember some basic ones.This tells us that mechanical memory works in some cases.
背 was also my way of sketching. I summed up it by three words: guess, draw,背. Guess is imagine an pattern, shape without a model,like one is in a test room, this motivates one's mind. To shoot is to xie3 sheng1 while looking at the model or a painting. Afterwards, most valuable lesson is by Xu Beihong's teacher, to 背 it couple times. Two of these three steps are without a model, one is to enhance imagination ability, and one is for memory training. Therefore, if one sticks to only the reciting text without using his own thinking ability is considered insufficient and laking of efficiency.
A formula called SQ3R is an even better solution. Study-Question-Read-Review-Recite
背 or not to 背, you try it by bothway.
