The textbook recommends teaching students how to create and use their own retrieval cues as a way to promote retrieval. This helps students connect new information to existing knowledge and improve their ability to recall information later. Choice B is not a consistent recommendation as the keyword method is only effective for remembering lists of up to 10 items. Choice C is not consistent as spending two-thirds of the class day reviewing already known information does not promote the retrieval of new information. Choice D is not consistent as essay tests may not be appropriate for all subjects or types of knowledge being assessed.
