During the past twenty-five years, researchers have made impressive
advances in pinpointing effective learning strategies (namely,
activities the learner engages in during learning that are intended
to improve learning). In Learning as a Generative Activity: Eight
Learning Strategies that Promote Understanding, Logan Fiorella and
Richard E. Mayer share eight evidence-based learning strategies
that promote understanding: summarizing, mapping, drawing,
imagining, self-testing, self-explaining, teaching, and enacting.
Each chapter describes and exemplifies a learning strategy,
examines the underlying cognitive theory, evaluates strategy
effectiveness by analyzing the latest research, pinpoints boundary
conditions, and explores practical implications and future
directions. Each learning strategy targets generative learning, in
which learners actively make sense out of the material so they can
apply their learning to new situations. This concise, accessible
introduction to learning strategies will benefit students,
researchers, and practitioners in educational psychology, as well
as general readers interested in the important twenty-first-century
skill of regulating one's own learning.
