Use Mnemonic Devices To Recall Information Quickly

Mnemonic devices are mental tools that allow you to memorize and recall information quickly and effectively by organizing and defining key elements, words, and pictures in a thought. These are pretty simple tricks that have been tested and proven over a long period of time. Anyone can learn and master how to apply them on a variety of situations.

#5.The Loci Method

This mnemonic device involves associating familiar locations with large chunks of information, in order to retrieve the information in a structured manner. As humans, we have great spatial awareness and a sense of direction that allows us to memorize different places that we have visited, and routes that we’ve traveled.

You can harness this ability by linking information to different memorable destinations, and using a number of locations along the road to arrange the details in a chronological manner.

For example, if you are studying for your high school or college exams, visualize the different rooms in your house and then attach individual subjects to different rooms in the house. Now associate each piece of information, facts and details you wish to memorize with different objects in each room. The next time you want to remember information regarding a particular subject, you’ll simply recall the room associated with it, and what each object in the room represents.

The ancient Greeks used this technique to memorize Homer’s Iliad and The Odyssey – a masterpiece poetry that consists of 25,000 lines. They achieved this by visualizing an imaginary house with various rooms that contained different objects, each corresponding to different lines of the poem.

This mnemonic device is also very popular in public speaking. When public speakers have several points they need to address during a speech, they simply associate different major points with different objects in a particular room during their preparations, and then follow the neural pathways connecting the image of the object with the associated information to help in recalling.
