Explain what is meant by a memory strategy and discuss how memory strategy use changes with age

What will be an ideal response?

A good answer will be similar to the following:
A memory strategy is an activity that improves remembering. Memory strategy use begins early, but early strategies are less effective than those used at a later age. Preschool children might look at or touch objects they've been told to remember. School-age children begin to use more effective strategies, such as rehearsal, a strategy of repetitively naming information that is to be remembered. As children get older they learn more memory strategies and when it is best to use each kind. For example, when they are supposed to learn the main ideas when reading a textbook they might use outlining or writing a summary rather than rehearsal. Older children are better than younger children at judging the objective of a memory task and at choosing an appropriate strategy for each task. As they get older, children also get better at monitoring the effectiveness of a strategy.
