Spread the loveEveryone has suffered through long days and late nights of studying, memorizing the material that had been pushed upon you for the past couple of weeks. Do you remember taking the test and then forgetting all the information you just memorized?

Students have been expected to memorize what they are taught without applying the topics to important or real life scenarios. The process is simple: teach, memorize, take a test, forget the information. The article talks about developing new methods to teach students, which are more important than ever with virtual learning.

And yet, learning psychology research and psycholinguistic studies continue to show the superiority of rote memorization over all  other learning paradigms in terms of accuracy, memorability, and reaction time.

Good  tips ... most programs don't "develop" people anymore ... too busy with mindless tasks and forget that learn for learn doesn't work... it takes a  mindful approach to deliver a variety of learning around one topic multiple ways and most important real applications to get learning to stick
