Cognitive Science and Learning

Cognitive science can reshape the way we teach.


Highlights:


Lectures = bad
Active learning = good

Praise = bad
Challenges = good

Rereading, highlighting, underlining = bad
Self-quizzes, flashcards, written reflections = good

Big exams, term papers = bad
Short quizzes, frequent writing assignments = good
