A method that involves organizing information into meaningful groupings, allowing users to improve recall.
Chunking is a technique where information is grouped into 'chunks', like breaking down a phone number into sections, which makes the information easier to remember.
This technique uses vivid imagery in assisting the memorization of complex information.
The Method of Loci involves visualizing items you want to remember in specific locations in a familiar place, such as along a path or in a room.
A mnemonic device that creates associations between familiar numbers and terms to be remembered.
The Peg-word system is used by associating words you want to remember with a list of peg words you have already memorized.
A mnemonic that involves associating items on a list with a sequence of familiar physical locations.
The Journey Method is similar to the Method of Loci where you associate information with landmarks on a journey or route you know well.
A mnemonic device that involves using alphabetical letters to represent numbers.
The Major System is a technique which associates consonant sounds with numbers and then adds vowels to form words out of these consonants.
A technique that involves associating text or information with a rhythmic beat or melody.
Rhyming and Song is a technique where information is put into the structure of a song or poem that is easy to remember.

The Tree Structure Method involves organizing information in a tree-like diagram which branches out from a central concept to more detailed information.
Using physical actions and movements to remember phrases or concepts.
Gesture-Based Learning involves associating motions with ideas or words to enhance memory through kinesthetic learning.
This ancient mnemonic technique enhances memory by encoding details within a metric structure.
The Art of Memory is based on principles of rhetorical and mnemonic techniques from Ancient Greece and Rome to organize and remember information.
This technique uses repetition over increasing intervals, improving long-term memorization.
Spaced Repetition employs increasing intervals of time between subsequent review of previously learned material to embed it into long-term memory.
A method of using simple diagrams to represent ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central concept.
Mind Mapping is a spatial organization strategy to visually structure information, often starting from the center of the page and using branches for categories.
This technique involves studying material in multiple, small sessions, rather than one long session.
Distributed Practice (also called the spacing effect) suggests that spacing out study sessions over time leads to more effective learning and long-term retention.
A method of enhancing memory by consciously involving as many senses as possible.
Multisensory Learning is where information is learned by engaging multiple senses, which can include sight, sound, touch, and movement.
Using the first letters of a set of items to make a word or a phrase that is easily remembered.
