The purpose of this study is to develop teaching activities based on Information Processing Theory(IPT) to assist in memory enhancement for the elderly, and to explore the effect of those activities on memory improvement by applying them to a cardiocerebrovascular disease prevention education program. For the study, three activities were developed such as imitation activity, picture painting activity and story activity. A total of 115 elderly learners participated in the study. Prior to and in the wake of the main treatment, the elderly took a pre and post-test. During each class, a different type of activity was utilized. The class for a cardiocerebrovascular disease prevention was designed based on an ASSURE model, the class continued for 50 minutes and every class procedure and content was identical other than applying three different teaching activities. The results of the study are as follows. First, the group in imitation activity outperformed the other groups. Second, post-test scores had improved significantly compared to pre-test scores among all the activity groups. The study presents the pedagogical implication that IPT-based activities can be condusive to enhancing memory, and ultimately contribute to beefing up the effect of a cardiocerebrovascular disese prevention education program for the elderly
