This study employs document analysis technique, one of the qualitative research methods. By using many databases, studies about ECRIF were examined and then these documents were analyzed and interpreted. In this way, some results have been reached. According to the results, ECRIF (Encounter, Clarify, Remember, Internalize, Fluency) which is an abbreviation of five different words, has a taxonomic structure with its teaching steps.
