In this important 44-slide assembly, we delve into cognitive load theory, unveiling its profound impact on learning. From understanding the different memory systems to managing information overload, students gain valuable insights. We explore effective study habits like active learning and spaced repetition, empowering students to optimise memory retention. Students will learn the connection between short-term and long-term memory, honing memory strategies for academic success.
This can easily be adapted for staff CPD.
Included in this assembly
What is cognitive load?
Types of cognitive load
Tips to manage intrinsic load
Tips to minimise extraneous load
Tips to enhance germane load
Short and long term memory

This is a teacher-training resource comprising 47 slides that I compiled for refreshing teachers on the essentials of teaching and learning. It covers all of the basics, and is designed to be delivered as a one-day workshop. This could be adapted to cover a series of INSET sessions or PD twilights, too.
Topics covered include:
Lesson planning
Active Engagement
Cognitive Load Theory
Learning games
Use of feedback tools like Word Clouds
Spatial Learning
Curriculum Mapping
Please note: You will need to read through these slides and check them before delivery, as they will need to be tailored to your organisation.
The slides also link to some interactive quizzes I’ve created especially for this workshop at Blooket, Quizlet, Quizziz and so on. These should all be publicly available and working correctly.
I’ve also included some Nearpod slides as a bonus - I recommend that you upload these to Nearpod and create your own lesson in their for that section of the workshop (this won’t take long, and you can use the free version of Nearpod).

Imagine a learning environment where learners are no longer passive recipients of information, but active architects of their own knowledge. A place where curiosity is sparked, creativity is fostered, and critical thinking is nurtured. This is the vision of constructivist learning theory, an approach to education/training that turns traditional teaching methods on their head. By recognising that learners construct their own understanding of the world through experiences and social interactions, constructivist learning theory empowers educators to create environments that are dynamic, collaborative, and learner centred. In this article I discuss the principles of constructivist learning theory, exploring how it can be applied to transform the way we teach and learn, and ultimately, unlock the full potential of our learners.
This is a SOW that was written by me for the COSIM/LESP project. It attempts to help students overcome their misconceptions on the phenomena linked to particle theory. It recomends using the LESP computer programme, but any particle simulation programme will do, so long as students can place the particles where they want to....alternately drawing storyboards also works.
