Description

In this workshop, we will read about and discuss learning and strategies for successful learning. We’ll start by discussing what we believe are good strategies. As we talk about what we read in “Make it Stick” (Brown, Roediger, and McDaniel, 2014), we will explore how our beliefs may be right or wrong, and we will consider what the authors suggest is “the science of successful learning.”

Objectives

  • 1. Describe successful learning.
  • 2. Distinguish between approaches that seem to, but may not, yield successful learning and those that do produce successful learning.
  • 3. Identify strategies for successful learning that might be applied in their own teaching.
