SUMMARY:Retrieval Practice in Science Teaching
DESCRIPTION:NEW DATE: Monday 9 November 2026\nHow can we help students remember what they’ve learnt — last lesson\, last week and even last year?\nStudents can quickly forget important scientific knowledge once a lesson or unit is over. Deliberate retrieval practice provides a practical way to bring that knowledge back to mind and strengthen learning over time. \nIn this free\, practical webinar\, we’ll unpack \n\nwhat retrieval practice is\nwhy it is such a powerful learning strategy\nhow it can be put into practice in science teaching.\n\nYou’ll explore practical ways to build deliberate retrieval into everyday science lessons\, helping students revisit important knowledge\, make connections and develop a stronger foundation for new learning. \nWhether you teach primary or secondary science\, you’ll leave with practical ideas you can use straight away to make retrieval a purposeful part of your teaching. \n
