Abstract

This work aimed to analyze how students of Secondary Education perceive and value the keyword mnemonic, compared with the rote method, when used it to learn short lists of words in Basque. To that end, they were shown 14 words in Basque to a group of 102 students of 1st and 2nd year of ESO, with their translations into Spanish .Half of the students used the method of repetition to learn the correspondence between words, and the other half, the keyword mnemonic. Those who learned the words using the keyword mnemonic offered significantly higher scores in perceived ease of the strategy and pleasure to the task.
