It's been a year since we launched RetrievalPractice.org! There's a party going on' right here – and we're celebrating you for transforming learning with cognitive science research, resources, and strategies in your classrooms and schools around the world. Here's a roundup of our biggest hits (and the best is yet to come)!
Read MoreHow can we use retrieval practice to break up our lessons, quickly and easily, without pausing to facilitate class discussion or collect papers? Use a retrieval strategy we simply call "Two Things," a no-quiz activity for your classroom.
Read MoreWhat's in a name? When we talk about retrieval practice, we describe it as "bringing information to mind" or "getting information out." No matter what we call it, learning by any other name would be just as powerful! This week, we present a variety of ways to describe and define "retrieval." Learn more from Doug Lemov, collaborator, expert educator, and author of Teach Like a Champion 2.0. Join hundreds of educators and add your definition, too!
Read MoreRetrieval practice is the best thing since sliced bread. We think so (and we love bread!). This week, read on for the top 5 reasons we love retrieval practice. Why do you love retrieval practice? Let us know in this week's super quick "retrieval practice about retrieval practice."
Read MoreWe talk the talk. But can we walk the walk? As cognitive scientists, we love talking about our research. Particularly when it comes to learning, which is so integral to everything we do everyday. Cognitive science research is great. But how do researchers teach? This week, read articles from three cognitive scientists about how they teach using retrieval practice, spacing, and metacognition in their own classrooms.
Read MoreNeed more hours in the day? Time is limited and learning is vast. How can we implement retrieval practice in our classrooms, but cover all our course content, too? It doesn't have to be one or the other. We provide research and recommendations on how retrieval practice doesn't require more time to transform learning. Small adjustments can make a big difference.
