Book Club: Make it Stick: The Science of Successful Learning
To most of us, learning something “the hard way” means wasted time and effort. Good teaching, many believe, should be tailored to the different learning styles of students and should use strategies that make learning easier.
Make It Stick, our September pick for the L&D Shakers Bookclub, turns fashionable ideas like these on their head.
Drawing on recent discoveries in cognitive psychology and a ten-year collaboration among some of the world’s leading experts on human learning and memory, the authors explain what really drives successful learning. 🧠
With clear, real-world examples, they show how we can confidently hone our skills and learn more effectively.
Whether you managed to read the book or not, join the Bookclub team in a facilitated discussion in which we'll explore the main concepts presented in the book, share our own experience as L&D professionals, and do what we love the most: learn about learning! ✌️
See you there!
