How can an understanding of memory enhance your science teaching?
Understanding how students learn is just as important as what we teach.
Join the Science Teaching Association Victoria (STAV) for this practical webinar as we explore how insights from cognitive science can help improve learning in the science classroom.
We'll unpack a simple model of memory and examine classroom strategies you can put into practice, including how to:
- Secure students' attention
- Present new concepts without overloading working memory
- Reduce cognitive load by avoiding split attention
- Strengthen long-term learning through retrieval
- Deepen understanding using elaboration and meaningful scientific connections
Whether you're teaching primary or secondary science, you'll leave with practical, evidence-informed insights to support student learning.
