Well this is depressing. New study shows that many learning strategies used by students are not effective and what's worse is that in some cases, they are being recommended by their teachers. Important work by @drrwatkins.bsky.social and colleagues ⬇️ mdpi.com/2227-7102/15...

We may feel like we’ve done ‘effective revision strategies’ to death… but the kids still aren’t doing them folks www.mdpi.com/2227-7102/15...

Really interesting! "Our findings also suggest many students do not have a complete understanding of the strategies that are known to have higher utility (i.e., retrieval and spaced practice)."

Do secondary students know which are the most effective learning strategies to help them study/revise? Great study by Dr Fatema Sultana using a probability sampling method with schools in North Wales www.mdpi.com/2227-7102/15...

Great to see the positive impact of our NIHR funded KiVa anti bullying trial in schools in North Wales. www.itv.com/watch/news/r...

👇How we used cost-consequence analysis in schools in north Wales to identify a low cost, promising professional learning programme (and how it can improve the quality of other programme evaluations) www.mdpi.com/2227-7102/14...

Great to see schools in north Wales contributing to this important new research. theconversation.com/making-bully...
