How does one become a successful learner? I investigate conditions that improve the durability and flexibility of learning—that is, ways to help learners (a) master and retain knowledge and skills over long periods and (b) apply learning successfully in novel contexts. I employ a multi-faceted approach that includes laboratory and online experiments, classroom studies, surveys, and quantitative meta-analysis. Areas of focus include prequestioning (making guesses about information that one has yet to learn), retrieval practice (practicing recall of studied information), interleaving (mixing the study or practice of different concepts or skills), and educational technologies (e.g., online learning tools). Overall, this program of research is helping to build a “toolbox” of evidence-based learning techniques and is revealing insights into human learning and memory processes.
