Newsflash! MSMI releases a NEW Toolkit:
Retrieval Practice
Retrieval Practice involves engaging students in activities that require them to actively recall information that they have learned previously. This method has been demonstrated in a variety of classroom and lab studies. While it can take on a variety of formats, (i.e., discussion, writing, quizzing), retrieval practice is most effective when students are quizzed in a low-stakes setting such that they are practicing showing what they know.
MSMI provides professional development, videos, and instructional material to help teachers implement research-based strategies in their classrooms.
