In this episode of the L&P podcast, I speak with Dr. Althea Kaminske, a psychologist who studies the application of cognitive psychology to education. Dr. Kaminske and I discuss six evidence-based strategies from psychology that you can utilize to learn and remember information more effectively:

Retrieval Practice
Spaced Practice
Interleaving
Concrete Examples
Dual Coding
Elaboration

Dr. Kaminske also shares some of her research on the harmful effects of cell phone notifications on our ability to focus and the lessons she has learned about how to utilize the six strategies in her own life.
