The goal of this page is to give daily information on how to learn and, specifically, to study and memorize profitably and without excessive effort. I also hope to clarify these issues since there are so many wrong, exaggerated and misleading news on the internet.

Brain-Friendly Learning Tips for Long-Term Retention and Recall2016 •
The main study skills students presently rely on are massed practice, repetition, rereading, and highlighting which cause a false sense of fluency (Bjork, R. & Bjork, E., 1992). Memory has two strengths, storage strength and retrieval strength with the theory of desirable difficulty stating the harder one has to work to retrieve a memory, the greater the subsequent spike in retrieval and storage strength (Bjork, R. & Bjork, E., 1992; Hattie, 2013). Spaced-repetition, pretesting, interleaving, and regular testing are a few study skills which can lead to deeper learning. Incorporating them into teaching as well as showing students how to use them could lead to deeper learning, stronger retrieval, and longer retention. This paper examines these study skills including examples of how to incorporate them into various classroom activities.
