(short article).On metacognition: Boosting learning by changing the order and timing of classroom tasks: Implications for professional practice (journal article).On study skills: A week until the exam? Advice on revision, part 1 (blog post).On teacher research engagement: Experts in learning (book chapter).On myths and misconceptions: Neuromyths about learning (blog post).And you can see my most recent blog post below:
