Answer:

a) a mnemonic device

Explanation:

A mnemonic device is a learning technique that helps to encode information  and to remember it.

Mnemonic device use <u>retrieval cues, imagery, songs, rhyme, acronyms, sentences</u>. All of these are used to help the original information to become associated with something more meaningful.

In this example, Tim <u>needs to remember the spelling of "geography" so he learns a sentence that serves as an acronym</u> (since the first letter of each word correspond with each letter of the word he needs to learn), so he's using a cue, in this case an acronym or sentence so <u>he can associate the spelling (original information) with something more meaningful to him </u>(the creative sentence of George)

Thus, the correct answer is a) a mnemonic device.
