What is faster than rapid learning? Bits of Information.
We read every day, and students are no exception. Specifically, a student will pay attention to anything that comes up on their phone. One way to add information retention is to based part of the day’s lesson on the information received students receive on their phones. The are a several creative ways teachers and instructors can achieve this.
Scenario 1. Have student sing up on an email/text list, and every morning send out a short summary of the day’s lesson(s). Some student will then recall the information (as short or brief as it may have been) and have an idea of the work/discussion.
Scenario 2. Project based. Group students and have them create a presentation of the information they will receive from you. Do not tell them what they will be working until they are organized and ready. You can create rubrics, deadlines, etc. and make them available to them. This will intrigue them and create a buzz among them as to which topic they are working on.
Etc.
