Testing Can Be Useful for Students and Teachers, Promoting Long-Term Learning

Posted October 8th, 2012 by dominika.fudala

(Science Daily) Pop quiz! Tests are good for: (a) Assessing what you’ve learned; (b) Learning new information; (c) a & b; (d) None of the above.

The correct answer?

According to research from psychological science, it’s both (a) and (b) – while testing can be useful as an assessment tool, the actual process of taking a test can also help us to learn and retain new information over the long term and apply it across different contexts.

KEEP IT HUMAN

(one+ magazine) I have always hated online courses. Even though I’ve been a Net enthusiast since before there was a Net, I have never appreciated when intimate, real-life encounters are relegated to the digital realm. Education is a particularly human-to-human transmission. Students learn as much from watching their professors think in real time as they do hearing whatever facts and ideas come out of them.

What can songs teach us about presentations?

Popular songs catch and keep your attention

Verse - chorus - verse - chorus - verse.
Listen to the radio and you will see for yourself: this is the structure of the typical songs we hear every day. And I suggest we can ‘take that’ as the framework we should embed in our presentations too.
“Verse-Chorus: a musical form common in popular music where the chorus is highlighted.“ (Wikipedia)
In the verse the singer plays the main role; the lyrics dominate and the story flows and develops.

Conference Attendees Remember What They Think About

Posted April 19th, 2012 by mireia.iglesias

Conference speakers make assumptions every day about how their attendees comprehend, remember and apply the information they hear.

These assumptions, as well as their presentation decisions, are based on a mix of theories, trial and error, past experiences with their own teachers and professors, and instinct.
Yet are these theories, experiences and instinct serving the speaker and the participant well? Are the speakers’ assumptions accurate?

What Lectures actually achieve

Posted March 16th, 2012 by mireia.iglesias

Lectures have limits when used for education.

Lectures are a great way to share information. However they are not as effective as discussions for getting learners to think, develop attitudes or change behaviors.

Why Lectures?
In politics lectures are called speeches. In faith institutions lectures are called sermons. In colleges and universities lectures are called teaching. Most conferences begin with a cornerstone lecture often called a general session keynote.

The performance consists of a satirical act, cut out specifically for the activity at hand. This can be a party, a congres, a company reunion, or … whatever might be the occasion.
