The topic on using memorable moments was particularly interesting to me bacause thsi is something that I do in my classes with students but not after I get to know them a little more. Some students are either just shy, or private, and before I use personal examples from what I have learned about the students, I try to learn the students themselves. I still think it is an excellent way to get students to retain information. If you use examples from their life experiences, this is something they can relate to. I also ask students for personal examples, so that they can draw from their own experiences. Most of the time, I find soemone else has a similar story.
