After listening to the podcast interview with Dr Roediger, answer the following

questions.

1.  How cognitive psychology defines learning?

- Learning improve overtime from experience and some skill or task, learning
just happens just like trying to learn a language and change it with
performance over time is a function of experience.

2. What are the common misconceptions about learning?

- If you ask how high schoolers and middle schoolers how they prepare for tests,
the most common answer would be that they highlight or underline texts and
reread them. But evidence shows that the things that are learned using this
method tend to be forgotten relatively rapidly.

3. How re-reading and review doesn’t work for retention?

4. Why does retrieval practice work?

- There's an idea of what's called transfer appropriate processing in my fields
and the basic idea is you want to learn in a way that will transfer to what your
ultimate task is

5. What are the benefits of making learning difficult?

- The idea of making learning difficult just means something that slows down
initial learning makes it a bit clunkier harder for students to do but it helps them much
more in the long run and the idea is that learning that applying some effort into learning
is going to help you in the long learning can be hard of making learning a little bit harder
