Dear Students
You all know that there is lot of learning required in this subject . Although explanations can be in your own words but you need to remember the main headings .
Try the use Acronyms and Mnemonics for making learning easy .
Use of Acronyms and Mnemonics can help you to remember things better. It also makes it easier for you to recall that information later. They are also the most effective for forming strong long term memories.
But these techniques should be used with caution. Do not make use of them for every thing. Use these only where you feel problem in learning or there are lot of points and sub –points to remember.
An acronym is a pronounceable word formed by the first letters of a phrase.
Acronyms can be used to remember a list of words. When you were little, you were probably taught that VIBGYOR will help you remember rainbow colors in order which are : Violet Indigo Blue Green Yellow Orange Red
