The experiment tests the effectiveness of rote memorization (simple repetition) and eidetic memorization (mental picture association). Before you begin, develop a testable hypothesis that states which technique you think will be more effective. Then, perform the experiment (see Remember This? – Experiment located in Project resources).

After completing the experiment, summarize your findings in a blog post (submitted as a text document) in which you address the following:

• What was your initial hypothesis?
• What were the results of the experiment? Include all the data you collected.
• Explain the psychology of memory and why one memory technique was expected to work more effectively than the other. Answer the following questions in your explanation:
  1. Was this experiment dealing with explicit or implicit memory? Which sub-type?
  2. For each technique, which type of memory—sensory, short-term or long-term—were your subjects using? Justify your answer.
  3. Were the two techniques different in encoding, storage or retrieval?
• How were your results consistent or inconsistent with current theories?
