In the latest @edtoselfreg, @ShyamBarr & @MrMac85 discuss the power of shifting focus from encoding to retrieval in the learning process. Tune into this discussion on why retrieval trumps re-reading notes.

In the latest @edtoselfreg, @ShyamBarr & @MrMac85 spotlight retrieval practice - actively recalling learned info from memory. Key is not just using strategies like mini-quizzes but explaining why retrieval boosts learning. This helps develop metacognition for long-term benefits!

As educators, it's crucial to understand the ways in which students explain the CAUSES of their success/failure. Help your students succeed by supporting them in making attributions that will motivate them and improve their performance. Listen to EP. 10👉🏾bit.ly/40V3c3K
Developing metacognitive knowledge is one way to help students become better learners. This thread gives teachers the information they need to teach students about their memory… a worthwhile read 🤓
