The Hechinger Report

SEPTEMBER 26, 2022

For most of my career, I’ve worked toward creating access for children who have historically been excluded from high-caliber educational experiences in education and technology. I believe that if we can open up access to these experiences, it will serve as a vital step toward resolving the inherent educational inequities in our society. In talent development programs I worked in at MIT and Duke University, children had academic experiences that changed their personal trajectories.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.
