Classificationofmemorization
1.Accordingtowhetherthememorizationhasapurpose,thememorizationcanbedividedintotwotypes:
Unconsciousmemorization
UnconsciousmemorizationmeansnoreservationPurpose,intheprocessofmemorization,thereisnoneedtomakeacertainamountofwillandeffort,andmemorizationoccursnaturally.Forexample,moviesanddramaswehaveseen,storiestoldbyothers,andcertainthingswehaveexperienced.Whenweperceivethem,wehavenointentionofrememberingthem,butthesecontentscanreappearinthemindinthefuture.Itistheunconsciousmind.

Unconsciousmindisveryselective.Generallyspeaking,thecontentoftheunconsciousmindhastwocharacteristics:First,thestimulationactingonpeople'ssensoryorgansisofgreatsignificanceorattractingattention.Forexample,peoplewillneverforgetnewthings;thesecondiscontentthatmeetspeople'sneeds,interests,andcanproduceadeeperemotionalexperience.Suchasthesituationwhentakingthecollegeentranceexamination,thesituationonthefirstdayofregistrationattheuniversity,etc.Unconsciousmemorizationhasapositiveeffectonpeople'sknowledgeandexperience.Asteachers,studentsshouldtrytheirbesttomakestudentslearnhappilyinthisway.However,unconsciousmemorizationcannotguaranteethatstudentsacquiresystematicculturalandscientificknowledge.Therefore,intheteachingprocess,alargeamountofmemorizationcontentshouldbeobtainedthroughconsciousmemorization.

Allpeople'sknowledgeandexperienceareobtainedthroughconsciousandunconsciousmemory.However,intermsoftheeffectofmemorization,consciousmemorizationisbetterthanunconsciousmemorization.Asateacher,understandingthislawofmemorizationwillhelpstrengthentheeducationofstudents'learninggoalsintheteachingprocess.Studentsshouldbeassignedtasksreasonablytoachievegoodteachingandlearningresults.
2.Accordingtotheunderstandingofthematerialduringthememorization,thememorizationcanbedividedintotwotypes:
