I learned about when you use either affect or effect. Grammer girl talked about examples and ways to remember. Affect vs. effect is one of the most asked questions in grammar. Most of the time that you use affect it is a verb. Usually when you use effect it is a noun. There are some cases where "the roles" are switched. If you remember affect-verb, effect-noun, you will get it right 95% of the time.
Example of Affect: The earthquake affected the state of California.
Example of Effect: The earthquake had a huge effect on the state of California.
The Arrows Affected Aardvark.---- Verb
The Effect was Eye-popping. ---- Noun
