That’s why flash cards and pop quizzes are effective: they prompt students to recall and access information from their memory bank. What other instructional tools and techniques help students remember what they’ve learned, and how can teachers put these to use?Host Dylan Wiliam takes a deep dive into four vitally important principles that are rooted in cognitive science and receive far less attention than they deserve: retrieval, spacing or distributed practice, metacognition, and interleaving. These concepts are brought to life by guests Patrice Bain and...2025-07-0126 minThe Knowledge Matters PodcastDylan Wiliam on How the Brain Learns | Literacy and the Science of LearningHow can schools and teachers maximize student learning?

The Iceberg Mountain PodcastBe More Like An Octopus! - Ep 8The central brain and mini brains structure of the giant Pacific octopus highlights the significance of autonomy for individuals in contributing to an organization's vision. Just as the octopus's central brain coordinates overall functions while its mini brains control individual arms independently, individuals within an organization require autonomy to excel. Educators should aim to cultivate "mini-brain students" who are self-managing and possess the drive to figure out how to accomplish tasks. By fostering autonomy, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, we empower students to take ownership of their learning and become proactive contributors to their future endeavors.
