Learning Strategy

   According to Jasmina Hasanbegovic，“learning strategies refer to Studentsself-generated thoughts, feelings, and actions, which are systematically oriented toward attainment of their goals”.
      Therefore, implementation of appropriate learning strategies is related to student's self-regulation behavior which in turn should be encouraged by pedagogical designs.

             3 Powerful Learning Strategies

1. Spaced PracticeSpace out your studying over time.

• Far too many students wait until the night before a test to study for it. Similarly, teachers often wait until the day before a test to review. When enough students score well on the test, it appears they have learned the material. But a few weeks later, most of that information has vanished from students’ minds. For more durable learning, the studying has to take place in smaller chunks over time.

2. Retrieval PracticePractice bringing information to mind without the help of materials.

• Many people think of “studying” as simply re-reading notes, textbooks, or other materials. But having the information right in front of us doesn’t force us to retrieve it from memory; instead, it allows us to trick ourselves into thinking we know something. Recalling information without supporting materials helps us learn it much more effectively.

3. ElaborationExplain and describe ideas with many details.

• This method asks students to go beyond simple recall of information and start making connections within the content. Students should ask themselves open-ended questions about the material, answer in as much detail as possible, then check the materials to make sure their understanding is correct.
