STUDENTS!
Studying for exams? This paper found the ideal test prep regimen:
đStudy before bed
đSleep
âShort review when you wake
In an experiment, long-term retention increased by 50% & it took less time! The key is combining both sleep & interleaved practice. hendrix.edu/uploadedFiles/AcâŠ
Some serious âBloomâs 2 Sigma Problemâ vibes here.
Playing with @PromptStorm, a neat little ChatGPT plug-in that generates ALL kinds of prompts for learning and practicing across an array of subjects. Super useful learning tool for students (and teachers).
We enter the final day of #DimanDays filled with wonder and curiosity. And in service to this curiosity we shared the following excerpt from @perryzurn & @DaniSBassett's wonderful 'Curious Minds: The Power of Connection' in our message to faculty this AM. #ParticlesToPatterns
With it being a half-day, a much lighter series of offerings on deck for day 3âall of them appealing however with a wide range of experiences and subjects offered. There's a fairly elaborate 'Rube Goldberg' situation developing in Physics which is sure to draw attention.

Day 2 of #DimanDays saw a significant uptick in offerings and visits. Observers deployed a creative digital sticky note hack in the Jamboard, allowing them to write more about their observations. Want to see what we're seeing? Check the Jamboard link here! jamboard.google.com/d/1QcDAFâŠ
Day 2 of #DimanDays sees offerings in every class period, some areas outside of the academic day, and nearly every discipline. Bonus points will be given for creative handshakes in the hallways of academic buildings whilst visiting colleagues' classes.
Day 1 of #DimanDays is in the books! Trends appeared related to various dynamic classroom management practices and the complexity of teaching adolescents. A great start, bolstered by an excellent kick off talk and visit from @DTWillingham.
Itâs happening! @DTWillingham live and in action as we kick off Diman DaysâThe Open Classroom.
And we are excited to welcome Prof. Willingham to campus on April 17 to help us continue to remedy that situation AND to kick off our annual âDiman DaysâThe Open Classroomâ celebration of teaching & learning, Apr 17-Apr 21.
By their mid-teens, students are expected to have become âindependent learners.â But in his new book, @DTWillingham explains that many high schoolers donât graduate with the learning habits to succeed in college, and he sets out to remedy this problem. fordhaminstitute.org/nationaâŠ
