聪明 means smart. To remember 聪, I first remember that in order to be smart, you need to learn first. To do this, you need to listen with your ears (the left-most part of the character is an 耳), be able to communicate what you know (there is a 口 in the upper right part), and truly understand the material with your heart (the lower right hand part is 心).
the left hand side is the ear radical, so i think that is how i remember this radical. if you listen in class, you will do well, and thus it is smart to listen in class.
It looks like an eye is looking at a lightbulb and a heart. That represents the struggle smart people have in making decisions based on heart or logic.

Smart people use 耳（Ear) to listen and use their 心 (heart) to understand people.
The right side of the character looks like it is a head with antennae so the head is getting information so he is very smart.
