Abstract

As the title suggests, this article is about methods of memory support for studying and learning. Based on the article by psychologist Dáné Gabriella, the concept of mnemonics is explained and many methods of creating mnemonics are presented. After this scientific introduction comes my collection of mnemonic learning verses, which I have collected in the course of my lectures. The collection is arranged by subject: Holy Scripture/Bible (1-9), Church History (10-12), Calendar (Chronology) (13-16), Catechism, Doctrine (17-23), Philosophy-Logic (24-25), making a total of 25 mnemonic verses. The sources of the collection are given at the end.
