The art of memorization is referred to as mnemonics .
Mnemonics are methods for remembering information that is otherwise quite difficult to recall.
A very simple example of a mnemonic is the '30 days hath September' rhyme. The basic principle of mnemonics is to use as many of the best functions of the human brain as possible to code information. There are many suggestions on how to make memorization easier but the best methods are those that the individual creates. Visual learners are most likely to benefit from mnemonics but an auditory learner can learn to adjust mnemonics to his learning style by substituting auditory cues. The kinesthetic learner can imagine performing actions or using tools as the basis of memory techniques.
