The Effect of Encoding by Multi-sensory Approach

This study overviews the relationship between encoding with senses and memory and examines the effect of multi-sensory learning in the classroom. Previous studies have indicated that using multiple senses is more effective than a single one to encode the information. Making use of this effect, a multi-sensory approach was developed for children with dyslexia. In recent years, there have been many types of multi-sensory learning. Each learning method is slightly different, but the basic concept is the same: using multiple senses at once. Nowadays, learners can use several types of materials to study new things. Therefore, using multiple senses to encode new information is essential.
