The Science of Studying/Teaching Effectively: Bjork`s Seven Study Techniques

Got this on a list-serv today and thought it may benefit us all greatly...

I know I could use a few suggestions myself! :-)

=======================


As some of you know, for a while now, I`ve been looking into what cognitive psychology and cognitive science has to say that can improve our teaching. I just found a great website that synthesizes much of this research, only from the student point of view. It is 
The Science of Studying Effectively: Bjork`s Seven Study Techniques 
at 
http://www.oberlin.edu/psych/studytech/index.htm

It provides study techniques that are not well known, but that are very effective and based in a great deal of research.
