ECT 5: Cognitive science for more able learners
20-minute recorded session with supporting resource
Part of our programme to support early career teachers, this module is designed to complement Early Career Framework (ECF) provision with specialist knowledge, aligned to the ECF and Teacher Standards.
Learn that…
- Developments in cognitive science can be used but also questioned
- Cognitive science needs to be examined through the lens of more able learners
Learn how to…
- Adapt cognitive science principles for more able learners, such as retrieval practice
- Plan tasks that use cognitive science principles
Aligned to Standard 3: Increasing challenge with practice and retrieval as knowledge becomes more secure; learn new ideas by linking those ideas to existing knowledge, organising this knowledge into increasingly complex mental models (or “schemata”);
carefully sequencing teaching to facilitate this process is important.
Cost: £50 +VAT (NACE members) / £100 +VAT (non-members)
