periods of time. Learning can be conceptualized as the transmission of information from the working memory into long-term memory. To effectively remember information, the learner must then practice retrieving it from the long-term memory in order to reinforce the pathways in the brain that maintain the information. This cyclical process of recalling stored information helps engrain the knowledge and prevent it from being forgotten.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-wrap.wp-block-kadence-rowlayout.kb-row-layout-id403_aac3ce-b5{margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:30px;}.kb-row-layout-id403_aac3ce-b5

retention of material and time since learning. His results, which have since been replicated (<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosone\/article?id=10.1371\/journal.pone.0120644\">Murre and Drois 2015<\/a>), demonstrate that a considerable amount of information is lost within a few hours of when it was learned. Thus, one of the biggest challenges as an instructor is to identify ways for students to learn new information, practice retrieving that information, and minimize forgetting. Retrieval practice is a common and easy-to-implement teaching practice that uses the science of learning to improve retention of information and develop students\u2019 metacognitive skills.
