As the students are able to connect different information to what they already know and to the things they are learning, they will be able to move it to the long term memory. <br /><br />I also like the idea you mention at the end of using reciprocal teaching. Allowing the students to tap into their higher levels of thinking will also move the information into long term memory. The more connections they make about what they are learning, the easier the information will be for them to access in the future.Carla Liminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969476161620568941noreply@blogger.com
