4.15 Five Pathways to Increase the Transfer of Learning
Episode description
Have you ever had a student who knows a concept in the first moments of the lesson, but the next time it pops up, it’s as if they had never seen it before? You may wonder what is happening and what you can do to help. This may happen for several reasons, but it should cause us to pause and think - and that is what this episode is all about! We’re discussing the transfer of learning or knowledge.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
- What is the transfer of learning/knowledge?
- Why do we sometimes not see a transfer of learning from the intervention setting into the classroom?
- What are some things we can do to increase the likelihood of a transfer occurring?
