Memory Strategies Used By Teachers
Abstract
The current study examines how teachers use memory strategies to present their lessons. Two research questions are asked. First, what memory strategies do teachers use to teach their lessons? Second, how do teachers use memory strategies in their instruction? Eleven teachers complete an open-ended questionnaire to identify the memory strategies they use and give exam- ples how they use these strategies to teach. Rehearsal is found to be the most frequently used strategy, followed by mental imagery, elaboration, mnemonics, and organization. Representative examples and activities of these memory strategies are given to show how teachers use these strategies in their classrooms.
