“父母可能会感到惊讶的一件事,了解测试,这实际上是支持学生记忆的最佳方式之一 - 即使是他们更深入的学习。I think there’s the perception that testing is all about ‘drill and kill’, and it’s just about rote-ly memorizing a list of facts… but it’s actually a way to make deeper learning, more creative learning possible by taking those facts and moving them into our long-term memory — so that we have more room in our short-term working memory to take those facts, combine them in new ways, think of new ideas that are sort of jumping off from what we know… That’s one reason that testing, by consolidating memories, moving them to our long-term memory, is really a great way to promote deeper learning.”
