Causes of the Great Depression-Create a Mnemonic! (Memory Device)
You need to create mnemonic to remember the causes of the Great Depression (Listed below). Here are some methods you might use. ACRONYMS. You form acronyms by using each first letter from a group of words to form a new word. This is particularly useful when remembering words in a specified order. Acronyms are very common in ordinary language and in many fields. Some examples of common acronyms include NBA (National Basketball Association) SENTENCES/ACROSTICS. Like acronyms, you use the first letter of each word you are trying to remember. Instead of making a new word, though, you use the letters to make a sentence. Here are some examples: My Dear Aunt Sally (mathematical order of operations: Multiply and Divide before you Add and Subtract) Kings Phil Came Over for the Genes Special (Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Genus, Species) You may also use a rhyme or song! Causes of the Great Depression include 1 overspeculation in the stock market 2 overborrowing 3 overproduction in factories and farms 4 uneven distribution of wealth 5 failure by the Federal Reserve to monitor banks 6 high protective tariffs.
