Answer: D. a heuristic.

Step-by-step explanation: Heuristic is the use of simple mental shortcuts to solve problems and make decisions quickly and efficiently without spending a lot of time thinking about the problem and how to solve it.

In this case, Tim uses the simple trick of reminding himself that "i" comes before "e" except after "c", without spending time to actually remember or memorize the correct spelling of the word.
