What is a mnemonic device?

A visual representation of information

A memory technique that aids in the information retention

A type of note-taking system

A mnemonic device is a memory technique that aids in the information retention by creating associations or patterns that make it easier to remember information. It is not a visual representation of information or a type of note-taking system. Mnemonic devices can include acronyms, rhymes, songs, or other tools that help encode information in a way that makes it easier to recall later.
