Project-based learning is one of my favorite strategies in instructional design. When Ali Siddiqui reached out to me saying he wanted to nerd out about it on the podcast, I gladly said yes! Come to find out, Ali has an incredible background story. drlukehobson.com/podcast-epi…

Research suggests that note-taking is of the most important things you can do when learning. In fact, some studies found that written summaries increased learning by 30%! #carllearns #learning

Want to keep learners engaged and make educational content stick? In the latest @LearnSciWeekly, research shows pre-questions can enhance a learner's topical memory! Long video? Try using pre-tests to reduce mind wandering & increase retention. Read more: bit.ly/3r3KdRC

Great tips! I try to incorporate "K/W/L" into my courses (and when helping my 8-year-old with a new subject). It's a chart of what you "Know", what you "Want" to know, --and after-- reflecting on what you "Learned" to help students reflect on their learning experience.
In last week’s issue, we went over how teaching metacognition is a powerful strategy to encourage critical thinking and discourage disinformation. Head on over to our newsletter to learn how you can start to incorporate metacognition into your practice! bit.ly/3a9HXBx

This podcast, hosted by @AndrewJacobsLnD, gave me an opportunity to dive into literature on lifelong learning and to learn from @SharonGChiara. Together we explored the concept of lifelong learning, which is so broad and deep that it's impossible to capture it all in one podcast.
