CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two types of rehearsal: maintenance and elaborative. Maintenance rehearsal (also known as rote memorization) involves repeating information (out loud or in your head). Elaborative rehearsal is more elaborate and involves additional memory aids like mnemonic devices.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of elaborative rehearsal include using rhyming, music, analogy, and contextualization cues to retain information long-term.

Detailed explanation-3: -an encoding strategy to facilitate the formation of memory by linking new information to what one already knows. For instance, when trying to remember that someone is named George, one might think of five other things one knows about people named George.

Detailed explanation-4: -The short term memory system uses maintenance rehearsal to retain the information for a longer duration and it is carried through silent or vocal repetition. On the other hand, elaborative rehearsals associate the information that is to be retained with the already existing information in long-term memory.

Detailed explanation-5: -As an example of elaborative rehearsal, imagine meeting someone whose name is Sandy, then making an association with a sandy beach to remember that name. The goal is to create a memorable, personalized association with a new piece of information one wants to remember.
