How do you know if you have really learned something? With a doctoral degree in Health Professions Education, Staci Saner Ed.D, M.Ed, and Jerry Rabalais, M.D., M.H.A, a 35-year infectious diseases physician, dive into the learning science behind remembering as it applies to our role as educators. They push us to be more focused on getting information out of our learners’ heads than we are on putting information into their heads. Along the way, Staci and Jerry explore the key learning strategies in the 2014 book, Make It Stick, about how learning really works and what doesn’t work. Putting these lessons into our teaching will magnify your impact as a health sciences educator.
