Cognitive challenge and pedagogy
This session will explore evidenced based cognitive theory and key elements of the science of learning, giving detailed consideration to their effective application in the classroom to meet the needs of more able learners. Specific foci will include metacognition and self-regulation, spaced and retrieval practice, cognitive load theory, sequencing and modelling. We will explore what cognitive challenge means and the components essential for its effective implementation in classrooms and throughout the school. Practical examples of cognitively challenging pedagogy will be shared and reviewed.
