  1. Interweaving THE ROLE OF RETRIEVAL, SPACING AND INTERLEAVING IN THE CURRICULUM BY MARK ENSER

  2. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Changing a culture: from doing to learning Episodic memories were created in a culture of doing. These episodic memories can be unconnected to the thing that was meant to be learnt. “It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

  5. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Changing a culture: from doing to learning Spacing Effects in Learning, a Temporal Ridgeline of Optimal Retention (Cepeda et al 2008) “ If a person wishes to retain information for several years, a delayed review of at least several months seems likely to produce a highly favorable return on a time investment — potentially doubling the amount ultimately remembered, holding study time constant — as compared to less temporally distributed study.”

  11. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. From Interleaving to Interweaving  Recalling things improves retrieval strength.  Isolated pieces of information are harder to recall.  We want to take our pupils on a journey. A curriculum.

  12. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. From interleaving to interweaving Term One: Geography of Sport Term Two: Urbanisation Term Three: Tectonics Term Four: Brazil Term Five: Weather & Climate Term Six: Geography of Disease

  13. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. From interleaving to interweaving Topics can become silos of information. Experts will see the links between them Novices won’t always see these links.

  15. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. We need to weave together the threads of our subject to reveal the big picture.

  16. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Step One: What is your big picture? “We want our pupils to leave here being able to understand why the world is the way it is; both the physical and human process that have shaped it and continue to shape it.”

  17. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Step Two: What do pupils need to know? “We want our pupils to leave here being able to understand why the world is the way it is; both the physical and human process that have shaped it and continue to shape it.”  Fundamental knowledge  Threshold concepts  Examples

  18. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Step Three: How will it be best structured? “ To understand X they first need to understand…”

  19. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Step Four: Where are the connections?

  20. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Step Five: Build it into the planning  Places referenced  Use of images  Knowledge organisers  Retrieval quizzes  Assessments

  21. Interweaving the Curriculum: Retrieval, Spacing and Interleaving. Conclusion Retrieval, spacing and interleaving can help move us from a culture of doing to a culture of learning. More importantly they can be a tool for creating a rich curriculum that weaves the big picture of our subject.
