Need to memorize Erikson’s Eight stages of psychosocial development? On this page I’ve got an audio file in which I share a mnemonic device I created using the pegword system. Of course, these pegwords and mental images work for me, but you may want to alter them a bit to make them more memorable for you. In any case, have a listen and feel free to print out the image below.
Now, this mnemonic won’t teach you what happens in each of the different stages – for that you’re going to have to study the theory. However, this should help you keep the order of the stages right.

I decided that it was time to look at the biology behind the changes that occur in our lives as we grow. As I put my ideas together to do this, I employed a very neat program called Timeliner. It is so cool in fact that I decided to do an episode solely on how to use Timeliner, especially the tool called “merge”. If you are an educator I think you’ll find this episode interesting.
