In an age of instant information, how do we help students remember what really matters?

While quick answers are just a click away, true learning requires durable knowledge that stands the test of time. This workshop introduces three powerful, evidence-based strategies—retrieval practice, spaced practice, and interleaving—that significantly enhance long-term retention and application of knowledge.

Join Michael Pazinas for Research-Based Learning Strategies 1: Make Memory Stick. Discover how to design learning experiences that move students beyond temporary recall and toward deeper, more flexible understanding that supports higher-order thinking.

What You’ll Learn:

• How retrieval practice strengthens memory and identifies gaps in learning

• Why spaced practice improves retention compared to cramming

• How interleaving helps students discriminate between concepts and apply knowledge adaptively

• Practical ways to integrate these strategies into lectures, assignments, and assessments

• How to help students study smarter using principles from cognitive science
