In this final episode of our series with The Learning Scientists, Dr. Megan Sumeracki dives into more detail about the three teaching and learning strategies of elaboration, concrete examples, and dual coding.
The Learning Scientists, a group of cognitive psychologists, have developed six main strategies to support your teaching and your students’ learning. In the previous episode, Dr. Sumeracki and Dr. Althea Need Kaminske talked about the strategies of spaced practice, interleaving, and retrieval practice. Today, Dr. Sumeracki talks in-depth about the remaining three strategies:
- Elaboration, connecting new learning to previous learning
- Concrete examples, providing supporting information
- Dual coding, using visuals
A synopsis of these strategies and resources to help use them is at this link and you can find the full research paper at this link.
