In order to REMEBER the definitions of different types of narrative devices and techniques, one strategy i used was

creating flashcards with the term on one side and the definition on the other. I would review the flashcards regularly and test myself on the definitions to ensure that I had them memorized. I also tried to incorporate the terms into my writing or discussion about books and films to reinforce my understanding of them. Additionally, I would research examples of the devices and techniques in action in various works of literature and film to help me better understand how they are used.
