    Study Notes

    Memory Retention

    • Techniques like spaced repetition, active recall, and elaboration help to improve memory retention.
    • Spaced repetition involves revisiting information at increasing intervals, while active recall encourages retrieval of information without relying on notes.
    • Elaboration means connecting new information with existing knowledge and creating meaningful associations.

    Growth Mindset

    • Individuals with a growth mindset believe that intelligence and abilities can be developed through effort and learning.
    • They focus on the process of learning and see challenges as opportunities for growth, embracing feedback and persistence in the face of difficulties.

    Collaborative Learning

    • Collaborative learning fosters a sense of community, encouraging students to engage with each other and build connections.
    • This interaction promotes active learning, allowing students to explain their understanding and receive feedback, leading to deeper comprehension.

    Motivation Factors

    • While intrinsic motivation (driven by internal factors like interest and enjoyment) is crucial, external factors like grades and rewards play a smaller role in long-term motivation.
    • A student's individual learning style, prior experiences, and belief in their abilities also influence motivation.

    Effective Feedback

    • Effective feedback provides clear and specific information, focusing on both strengths and areas for improvement.
    • It helps students understand what they did well, what they could do better, and offers actionable steps for progress.
    • It is timely, delivered promptly to allow for reflection and improvement.
