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.

He was a very old man that year when I met him at the school. * Respected, yes; but Wendelstedt wasn't God.

(Doubling the time available for the exam, but not doubling the length of the exam, will allow students the time they need to approach complicated questions.)
