It can be very frustrating for teachers when students forget so much of what has been taught. Retrieval practice has been proven through decades of research as one of the most effective strategies to make learning ‘stick’ so learners of all ages can use it to solve problems, think critically and creatively, and develop other competencies. In this session, participants will learn why retrieval practice is so effective, and numerous retrieval practice activities and resources will be shared.
