Memorization (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rote

'memorization' is the definition.
(rote is a kind of memorization)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rote that I've seen before include "Habitual routine" , "Repetition for learners" , "Mechanical procedure" , "Way of learning" , "Learn by . . . . to have off by heart" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and the Penny Press.
