Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning

As someone new to the science of learning, I found this to be a great resource in dispelling many education myths (such as learning styles or rereading material) and offering practical advice (memory retrieval exercises, spaced and interleaved practice, etc.) for learners and instructors alike. The authors do well at backing up their conclusions with scientific studies. I noticed the authors even utilized the interleaving concept in their book as chapters repeatedly circled around to previous ideas.

Some of the stories ramble on a bit, but this was the only real negative I noticed.

I'll be leaning on the concepts in this book as I try to find my place in the field of education. Recommended for students and teachers.
