Join me LIVE on Zoom later this month (July 22-26th, 2024) as I teach a metacognition course for teens (13-19). Give your teenager a mental advantage that will help them succeed in school and beyond as they discover how to step into the driver's seat of their own mind.

This is really excellent, Jared. Thank you. Exactly the same principles apply to learning to read and spell. The man who invented the same kind of worked example (word building) was the Russian psychologist Daniil Borisovich Elkonin. Definitely worth checking out :)
Hi Jared, This is Vishal from India. I hope you are doing well in life. I learned a new concept from your video, and I want to thank you for sharing this knowledge with us. I am a student preparing for competitive exams, and I plan to apply this concept to my math practice sessions. If possible, could you please create a separate video on math? Specifically, one that explains how to approach math problems or how to use neuroscience to better understand math concepts. The issue I face is that while I can solve problems from examples or lectures, I struggle when faced with new problems. Often, I cannot solve them or even fully understand the questions. If you could create a video addressing this, it would be incredibly helpful. Thank you so much! Vishal from India
Rae! It's awesome to hear from you - all is well in my world: have a 4 month old baby who is filling my heart with joy and my trash can with diapers :-) I hope everything over the pond is brilliant - if I ever get a chance to sneak out there, I'm taking you out for a cuppa!
Good question: with novice learners, this has been shown to slow or harm learning. It's only once a basic concept has been built that multiple strategies seems to be beneficial. So it's not a place to start, but certain a place to move into!
Very interesting video. Certainly makes a lot of sense to some things I have seen in the classroom. I am interested in trying this for some concepts at the high school level. In your opinion, how does this learning model compare to the currently trending "Building Thinking Classrooms" model, which classifies the "I do, we do, you do" model as mimicry, and says this is to be avoided.
Luckily, mimicry is one of the most powerful ways to learn quickly and effectively. I have a 4 month old daughter - she is doing nothing but mimic us - our expressions, our movements, our giggles. Human beings are build to learn from each other - in that sense, mimicry is not a 4-letter word, it is essential. Unless you want your surgeon, pilot, or 16-year-old kid to learn how do do heart surgery, land a plane, or drive a car through pure exploration, mimicry seems key to effective outcomes.

Really interesting to see how explanations impacts memory. It actually makes a lot sense.
Absolutely BRILLIANT Jared!! I will be sharing these awesome videos with my colleagues. Hope you are doing well! Rae

Thanks for another course of food for thought. I was particularly taken with the better ratios for I do, You do, We do.
Really helpful Jared
@jaredcooney What happens if you give examples of more than one strategy to solve the problem?
