Mnemonics
are processes to enhance memory by using images or emphasising the
organisation of the learnt behaviour. In order to improve memory, two
easy methods can be used based on the kind of material to be learnt.
These are:
(i)
Words−Words can be learnt by relating them to form sentences.
For example the words are−shoe, pen, teacher, books, table.
These words can be arranged as−I was gifted a new pair of
shoes and a pen by my teacher. However, after
looking at my dirty books, she asked me to stand on the
table. This method helps to learn the words easily.
(ii)
Chapters−Chapters or lessons can be learnt by first reading
and then writing them. This enables continuous recall of
information. After enough practice, most chapters can be recalled.
