Learning strategy

Yana Weinstein and Megan Smith are two woman’s who met each other on their university, but they hadn’t really been in touch until January. They met each other they again when Yara started randomly tweeting at Twitter to help students with learning. They got talking and created a hashtag.  Later they created a website called learningscientists.org . They want to teach students how to learn better.

They talk about 6 learn strategy’s :

• Spaced practice
• Retrieval practice
• Elaboration
• Interleaving
• Concrete examples
• Dual coding

Today am I going to tell you something about the learning strategy called ‘spaced practice’.

With this method you won’t forget the information directly. When you learn you need to break up studying when you’re working with this method. You break up for a couple days, weeks or even months. You forget a bit of the information you’ve learned, you learn step by step a little bit at the time, and then when you ‘relearn’ it you get to know the information better and it helps your memory.

You could also look at notes from a week ago or a month and study that and not some recently information.

Spaced practice is about that you can’t start learning a day before the test because it is too late to space and you won’t remember the informative that good as when you learn with the spaced practice method. This method requires planning and that is pretty helpful for some persons.
