Encoding: Encoding is the process of converting information into a form that can be stored in memory. It involves transforming incoming sensory information into a mental representation that can be retained and retrieved later.
Retrieval: Retrieval refers to the process of accessing or recalling stored information from long-term memory. It involves bringing previously encoded and stored information back into conscious awareness.
Mnemonic Devices: Mnemonic devices are memory aids or techniques that help facilitate recall by creating associations between new information and existing knowledge or by organizing information in a memorable way. They often involve using acronyms, rhymes, visual imagery, or chunking techniques.
