Strategies of learning are essential for teachers as they have to find the best ways to help their students learn the material that they will be discussing. As a student, specific ways of learning are vital to helping them understand and use the material that is important in the discussion. In chapter three of our book, there is mention of the Metacognitive approach, where students and teachers take turns discussing the topic of discussion and break down what they have learned amongst fellow peers. Using the MetaCognitive rings real because, in classes here at the university, there were moments where the method was of use in classrooms. Also, the fact that in any school, students are expected to learn the material by memorizing it, and then when the material is no longer needed, it becomes obsolete.
In the website The Atlantic, a teacher discusses the use of repeated use and building, where students either rehearse what it is they are studying or connect or associate they things that the teachers teach them, such as using words or places to remember the names of certain places. So, if students used these methods, then they will remember the material better then they did before. Another sight on transfer learning is Machine Learning, where the topics of supervised, unsupervised, Predictive, and “Pure” Reinforcement learning show different ways in which students can learn in the teaching of the material.
Going through the course, each of these learning styles will be of use, trying to learn how to become better teachers and helping students to spit out the material.
