Bob Greene was originally planning to become an electrical engineer. He ended up with a teaching diploma and a bachelor in psychology but didn't know what the heck he wanted to do. In 1978, he started studying text characteristics and learning processes at a publishing house. That's when he realized that advertising was their quality.
Join math professor, Anna Stokke, in conversation with Dr. Paul Kirschner, a renowned educational psychology researcher and speaker. This episode will be of interest to anyone involved in teaching, whether they work with children or adults, or simply have an interest in education.
Dr. Kirschner explains how we process information in our brains, and how this can be applied to improve teaching practices. He shares insights on effective teaching techniques such as spaced practice, scaffolding, the worked example effect, among others. Additionally, he dispels some common education myths and critiques teaching methods lacking research-based evidence.
