When imparting knowledge of CompTIA certifications, the task does not only include syllabus content, it also involves sharpening the minds of the students. This week I turned to problem solving in dynamic tasks of A+ certification for students and also started using memory aids such as remembering their OSI mnemonics A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5.

Memory aids allow students to learn almost easily. For instance, ‘Please Do Not Throw Sausage Pizza Away’ in order to remember OSI layers! Another source that can be considered is the link on memory devices:

Core1
Core2

What other memory devices do you have that assist your students? Let’s combine our strength and creativity!

I love memory devices.

To help remember the default subnet mask of classes A-C of network addresses:
A is the first (#1) letter of the alphabet, and the first (1) octet of the subnet mask is turned on (255.0.0.0).
B is the second (#2) letter, and the first two (2) octets are turned on (255.255.0.0).
C is third (#3) letter with the first three octets on (255.255.255.0).

For the Presentation layer of the OSI model, I use the analogy of a magician. They're all about presentation, and they make things disappear and reappear (encryption).

Great examples sir! I love the subnet mask analogy—it's such a simple and memorable way to link letters to octets. And the magician for the Presentation layer is spot on! It's a perfect way to visualize encryption and data transformation. Thanks for sharing these creative tips!
