This guide unpicks the research behind how learners retain and recall information and provides evidence-based strategies for improving memory in the classroom. Including infographics, charts and diagrams, it provides clear, visual explanations of how memory works, including short-term and long-term memory, working memory, semantic memory and episodic memory. Ross presents a wealth of original ideas for incorporating this theory into day-to-day classroom practice, with proven methods for aiding knowledge retention and testing recall, to boost learning, support revision and motivate pupils.
