Abstract

In a variety of disciplines taught in elementary schools, which frequently need substantial memorizing, the use of mnemonic device techniques has shown to be helpful in facilitating learning and strengthening long-term memory. This study intends to investigate how well various mnemonic device techniques and their theoretical foundations work to improve long-term memory. A literature review methodology was used to create the accumulated findings by analyzing pertinent study results, journal articles, and literature reviews that covered the studied designs. The results of this study show that mnemonic device strategies can help primary school pupils improve their long-term memory. A variety of techniques are included in the mnemonic device techniques, including (1) rhyme, (2) abbreviations, (3) peg word system, (4) loci method, and (5) keyword system. Students can maximize their brains' encoding and retrieval processes, which will boost memory retention, by using the proper mnemonic strategy during the learning process. This helps students remember and retain the information they have learnt. In conclusion, using mnemonic device approaches in primary school instruction can greatly aid pupils in developing long-term memory. As they provide useful tools to aid the learning process and improve students' memory of crucial knowledge, educators and practitioners are encouraged to incorporate these strategies into their teaching practices. The use of mnemonic techniques by students can help them overcome the difficulties associated with memorization and improve their overall learning outcomes.

Abstract

This research discusses oppression of women and the patriarchal system in Nawal el Saadawi's novel Catatan Dari Penjara Perempauan uses a radical feminism approach. The novel shows how women experience structural repression institutionalized by the state, religion, and patriarchal culture. The female characters in the novel are depicted as subjects whose bodies and minds are controlled by the system of power, but also show various forms of active resistance to this domination. Through symbolic actions, verbal expressions, and legal awareness, they dismantle oppressive power relations. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with literature study techniques on the text of the novel as the main data source. The analysis was conducted by identifying forms of oppression and women's resistance reflected in the novel's narrative. The radical feminism approach is used because it is able to unravel the ideological roots of oppression against women, especially through control over women's bodies and expressions in a patriarchal system and authoritarian regime. The results show that this novel is not only a record of Nawal El Saadawi's personal experience, but also an ideological field of resistance to systemic patriarchal power. Thus, this study emphasizes the role of literature as a medium of social criticism and a space for struggle for gender equality.
