A Voice from the Classroom: The Learning Pyramid and the Chinese Room

Blog entry posted December 13th, 2010 by Dale Worsley

Have you ever seen the famous (or infamous, depending on your opinion of its validity) “Learning Pyramid”? Its basic claim is that as a learner you retain 5% of what you hear, 10% of what you read, 20% of what you both hear and see, 30% of what is demonstrated to you, 50% of what you discuss, 75% of what you practice by doing, and 90% of what you teach to others.

It is a too simplistic explanation of how humans learn, and its research origins are...

Paragraph Six - On Making First the Scholar Speak

Blog entry posted May 24th, 2010 by Dale Worsley
