Re-chunking the letters to form meaningful words can help improve Jeff's recollection by creating a more memorable and organized structure. For example, he could re-chunk the letters as TAX, BIRD, FIXTURE, and UNIX. This way, he can associate each chunk with a specific word or concept, making them easier to remember. Waiting, reading once, or alphabetizing the letters would not necessarily enhance his ability to recall the chunks effectively.
