Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Mnemonic devices are effective because they facilitate the encoding and retrieval of information by helping the learner in four ways. First, they help the learner to organize apparently unordered new information by providing a context, such as a word or sentence that imposes order on the material. Second, the meaningfulness of new material is enhanced when it is associated with familiar, meaningful information, such as memory pegs or loci. Third, they provide distinctive retrieval cues that are
encoded with the new material. Fourth, they force the learner to be an active participant in the learning process, which facilitates that process.
