On March 31st, Lauren Proffitt and Stephane Bolton presented to a group of educators about what retrieval practice looks like in the 4th and 1st grade classrooms, respectively.
This model is everything. When teachers understand how memory actually works, they stop blaming students for “not retaining” content — and start designing lessons differently. The best PD helps educators connect cognitive science to their Monday morning practice. This is exactly that kind of resource.

I'm working on my first retrieval grid for my 8th graders! Great presentation from Lauren and Stephane!
It was a great event! Lots of practical strategies from excellent teachers. Lots of easy take aways!
Am I missing the links to the podcast vs video versions? I am jet-lagged and I may just have tired eyes..
I think it's the jetlag! You should be able to toggle between video/podcast at the top of the post.
Ahhh! My eye read that as an image and I went right to the text. Live and learn. I need to learn how to do this sort of embedding in Substack...
