Make it stick (Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDaniel)
Make it stick is a book which explains the best learning strategies that are scientifically proven. The 3 main strategies are Retrieval practice, spacing out the practice and interleaving the learning material. For every single one of those strategies they give examples on how it works, explain why it works and give you advise on how you can use it in your life.
I read this book not particulalry for my self in the first place. At the moment when I read this I passed the year cum laude. But I did have a few pupils whom I was helping with studying. That really didn't go to well at first. I tried to explain to them how I learned but their grades just wouldn't go up. That is when I decided to buy this book to see what the science says. It did help them a lot when I tried the tips from the book . So in short it was worth it to buy! I don't really have a favorite quote in this book. It is mostly about the strategies and not that inspiring apart from that. Read 8/6/2022 |
