How to Teach So Students Remember offers seven steps to increase your students’ capacity to receive information in immediate memory, act on it in working memory, store it in long-term memory, and retrieve and manipulate it in unanticipated situations--that is, to use what they’ve learned when they need it.
Step by step, you will discover
* how to reach your students and get them to attend to incoming information;
* how to encourage reflection to better enable students to make connections to prior knowledge;
* how to help students recode new concepts in their own words to clarify their understanding;
* how to use feedback to provide a framework for learning and show the brain what's important to remember;
* how to incorporate multiple rehearsal strategies that provide multiple avenues to stored material;
* how to structure review processes so students retain information beyond the test; and
* how to align instruction, review, and assessment to help students more easily retrieve information.
