Webinar: Retrieval Practice: Theory and Application

@TeacherToolkit

<H2>Given the nature of U.K. schooling for parents, pupils and teachers during the coronavirus pandemic, I am offering online professional development for teachers to help share my knowledge of teaching and learning research - on a shoestring budget to bring in a small residue income at a difficult time for us all - to help connect the online, teaching community.</H2>

What will you learn? Teachers are curious about research but often don’t know where to start.
This 30-minute webinar/training session (plus 10 minutes question and answer) aims to meet demands and help other teachers learn more about retrieval practice and how you can adapt the ideas back in your place of work in terms of its theory and application in the classroom.
Why? Theories of why humans forget have been tested for decades. 
What we do know is that learning itself is not harmed by the amount of verbal material studied, but the retrieval of that material becomes more difficult as the number of items tested increases. Research into interference and memory (Malmberg et al., 2012) suggests that we must not assume that ‘forgetting is the result only of changing context’
How? This webinar offers a teacher training resource which teachers can use to develop their own knowledge of retrieval practice to develop in theory and application in the classroom. This editable file allows users to adapt the material to lead for teacher training sessions. The resource contains a 17-page PDF and Powerpoint file.
Who? This training is perfect for experienced teachers and school leaders who wish to explore cognitive science and discover how to instil action-research approaches to teaching and learning at a classroom level.
