Practical Implications of Cognitive Theories.
Svinicki, Marilla D.
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n45 p27-37 Spr 1991
Practical suggestions and application of six principles from cognitive psychology can make learning more efficient now and produce learners who will be more self-sufficient in the future. This means redefining student and teacher roles, organizing the course and content in a way consistent with how learning occurs, and helping students learn how to learn content. (Author/MSE)
