The Art and Science of Practice and Feedback
Practice and feedback. Seems easy, right? Actually, designing the appropriate type of practice and providing effective feedback requires a lot of know-how. Patti Shank, PhD., has been studying the research on this topic and wrote a book about it. In this conversation, she shares some of the key takeaways that she has gleaned from the research.

Practice and Feedback for Deeper LearningPatti has more than 20 years of experience with performance and learning analysis, instructional design, learning sciences,information design and usability principles. She is deeply engaged in researching what works best for workplace learning and training outcomes.

WE DISCUSS:

  • Difference between deep learning and superficial learning
  • Importance of practice and feedback
  • Why humans need a lot of practice to learn skills and retain knowledge
  • Types of practice that promote learning transfer (fidelity, consequences, variability, social interaction)
  • Types of practice that promote remembering (context, realism, reference)
  • Formative feedback versus summative feedback
  • Feedback for novices versus those with experience
  • Value of effortful learning

    Agreed. People often don’t want failure, yet through challenges and mistakes we learn. We have to keep educating our clients. Thanks for your comment.

    Loved this podcast. Especially on delayed feedback for experienced practitioners. The key to any learning is to think about what you are learning and the opportunity to make mistakes and recover from those.

    One of the problems I face as an ID is that not many clients are convinced. They want people to thrive (pass), which essentially is counter productive. We want people to succeed as well, but despite long conversations we give up.

    Time that we stand our ground…

    Excellent podcast, and I’m looking forward to reading the book. These concepts are absolutely key to creating successful training transference.
