Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning
Description
Drawing on decades of research in cognitive psychology, this practical guide reveals why many familiar study habits produce only the illusion of mastery—and what learners can do instead. It presents evidence-based strategies such as retrieval practice, spaced learning, and deliberate challenge to help readers retain knowledge, develop lasting skills, and transfer what they learn to new situations. Accessible and compelling, the book challenges assumptions about learning styles and effortless instruction while offering useful guidance for students, teachers, trainers, and anyone committed to learning more effectively.
