Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hannah is using semantic judgments, which involves processing and encoding information based on its meaning and relating it to personal experiences or examples. This technique has been shown to be effective in improving memory retention. Organizational encoding involves categorizing information to create a framework for storage, chunking involves breaking down information into smaller groups, and visual imagery involves creating mental images to aid in memory retention. None of these techniques are specifically described by Hannah's method of focusing on meaning and personal examples.
