To maintain memory of the things you want to remember, you need to encode information from the environment and or learning objectives. This is achieved through visual, auditory, and physical cues.
There are three types of encoding – acoustic, visual and semantic encoding. These are explored with clients to create bespoke visual, innovative ways of remembering what you want to memorise.
