Following is an excerpt from your educational psychology textbook: Learners engage in rote learning when they try to learn and remember something without attaching much meaning to it.One common form of rote learning is rehearsal, repeating something over and over within a short timeframe typically a few minutes or less) , either by saying it aloud or by continuously thinking about it in a more or less unaltered, verbatim fashion.Contrary to what many students think, rehearsal is not a very effective way of storing information in long-term memory.If learners repeat something often enough, it might eventually "sink in," but the process is slow, laborious, and not much fun.
Furthermore, people who use rehearsal and other forms of rote learning often have trouble remembering what they've learned.
An instructor writes several true-false items to assess what students have learned about rote learning and rehearsal after reading the textbook.Only one of them is consistent with guidelines presented in the textbook.Which one is consistent?
A) "The term rehearsal means repeating information in a relatively unaltered, verbatim form." The item is true.)
B) "Information learned in a rote fashion is not more difficult to retrieve later on." The item is false.)
C) "Rehearsal is a slow, laborious way of storing information in long-term memory." The item is true.)
D) "Rehearsal involves connecting new information with what learners already know." The item is false.)
