Entry 2-Mnemonic

This is my second entry for my blog. This will only talk about mnemonic. I am quite sure all of you know what is mnemonic right?? Mnemonic is something connected to the ability to remember things in my point of view. It makes easier for us to remember things that important. I often use mnemonic in primary school and continue using it in the secondary school without realising that it is mnemonic. Let me give an example, the 7 colours of rainbow. To memorize it, I have created mnemonic to make sure I remember it when the teacher ask or I can use it when I am in the examination hall. So, my mnemonic for the 7 colours of rainbow goes like this “Mat, Jenin, Ke, Hutan, Bawa, Ikan, Ulam”. It represent the 7 colours of the rainbow which is in Malay merah, jingga, kuning, hijau, biru, indigo and ungu. Now in the college I have really discover about the mnemonic and I have given a task to create a mnemonic for the “Rules of 10”. They are

 Indeed, I am not the big fan of Robert Pattison but it is just the letter suite them.The real word for the “Rules of 10” is “Topic, Content, Source, Audience, Rhetorical Function, Purpose, Perspective, Positioning, Impact, and the last one is Visual Literacy”. “Rules of 10” is actually used to criticize the essay for instance. It also can be used to criticize an article or something related to the writing whether the writing is good enough to be written or just says critical thinking about the writing.
