Answer:
The meta cognition process takes place in this method through the ability to come up with his own stories relating to each battle. By creating stories, he is more likely to remember them, as they were created in a way that his brain would most understand. His creation of these stories force him to visualize them, which utilizes the method of loci. Visualizing these stories gives meaning to the words his lessons have taught him, enabling deep processing. The more he runs through these stories, the more rehearsal, or repetition, takes place, and the longer he will remember these battles. Through visualization, he is adding detail to these battles while still keeping the main ideas of these battles intact, which is called elaboration, and will help David better remember. He is chunking when he connects all the battles together by discovering how they are all related. He will then create a mental set, in which he is able to see how mistakes were made and learned from in each battle, and why certain tactics were used as the Revolutionary war ensued. This will even help him later in his studies and through the rest of his life.
