This week the episode will be based around retrieval practice - a concept most of you will be familiar with, and if you aren’t then do take a listen to this episode which delves into the research underpinning the concept.

Many students when learning, make the error of being passive recipients of information, reading, listening, watching or copying. Whilst a few bits may stick, more information will stick if they actively reconstruct the information through some sort of recall activity.

Today we will cover 4 retrieval concepts you will know but thinking about the why. My hope is that this episode will perhaps reframe some of these basic ideas so that students use them even more effectively.

Just in case the link above doesn't work here it is in full to copy and paste:
