The Feynman Technique; The Protégé Effect; Peer Tutoring; Plastic Platypus Learning …
There are many names to describe it, but the idea is the same: learning by teaching can be a powerful practice.
Numerous studies have shown that students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned comprehend more information/retain more knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying.
Unfortunately, few studies have ever addressed some of the more nuanced considerations regarding this topic …
For instance, are all forms of ‘learning by teaching’ created equally, and does it make sense to use this approach across all contexts and situations?
Tomorrow I'm releasing a new 'From Theory to Practice' video in which I look at a fresh piece of research that dives more deeply into this topic.
Here are some of the questions I will tackle:
• What is ‘Depth of Processing’ … and how does this idea correlate to memory and comprehension?
• When can ‘learning by teaching’ be a powerful academic technique, and when can it merely be gratuitous?
• How do different forms of teaching others (e.g. orally versus written text) affect learning and understanding?
• What are some practical classroom implications of this research?
Stay tuned!
