🍎 Tuesday Teaching Tip (T3): Reducing cognitive load!

Organize materials so students aren’t juggling too much at once. Pair visuals with explanations, break tasks into steps, use worked examples, & cut redundancy.

Small design choices free up attention for real understanding.
Follow us for more Tuesday Teaching Tips (T3) or DM us to submit your own!

Each T3 has:
1. A definition of your teaching tip
2. Some concrete, readily implementable applications
3. A link to an article for deeper learning

🍎 Tuesday Teaching Tip (T3): Strengthen learning with retrieval!

Swap re-reading for quick recall. Try a 2-min brain dump, a no-stakes quiz, or ask students to "explain without notes." These simple routines help students pull knowledge from memory and build strong, more durable learning.

Hard to believe the semester is almost over! Our exit ticket today in Achievement Motivation was to make a mind map of everything we learned this semester. They only had 20 minutes and didn't finish yet, but I loved this activity and wanted to share them. 😍 @zachbaquet.bsky.social 1/4

🍎 Tuesday Teaching Tip (T3):

Promoting autonomy in thinking!
Ask students to explain their reasoning, compare ideas, & explore multiple approaches.

A simple shift from, “What do you choose?” to “How are you thinking about this?” can build deeper engagement and independent learning ✨
