I teach a freshman-level college skills course at IU South Bend. This past week, we spent time in class preparing for an exam they were to take. I divided everyone into small groups to review the different test strategies and how to memorize the material. The test was over a chapter from the textbook. One of the strategies was taking random information and organizing in a way that would be easy to remember. For example, taking a list of 6 terms and making a sentence out of the first letter of each term.
For this example, the first letter of each term they were trying to memorize was E, L, D, H, C, W. Below is the sentence they came up with using these letters:
Every
Losing
Domer
Hates
Charlie
Weiss
I thought that was pretty good.
