Retrieval Practice
Definition: Learning strategy where we focus of getting information out of a person, not in
By doing this, it strengthens your memory and you are less likely to forget it
Recalling is an important factor, forces us to pull the knowledge out of our head and inspect what we do know
-
This strategy is good for all grades, subject, students, and for all types of material
it should be used to engage all students,not just one
-
Improvement
-
Learning the information quick and easy doesn't actually show you understand the material and will remember it
When using flashcards its better to fully recall the information and write it down then flip the card over instead of flipping it over prematurely when you think you know the answer
-
Understanding
Retrieval isn't just about memorizing the material, it's also about understanding it
-
This also helps teachers know what the students are struggling with and what they need to go over in class
-
Effectiveness
more effective than lectures, re-reading, taking notes, and highlighting
struggling to learn through practicing what you know and recalling that information is shown to be better than re-reading
-
Short term memory
Cramming and re-reading may help you know the information the next day but you won't be able to recall it later on
Slower, effortful retrieval of the material leads to long term memory
