 Online quizzes are everywhere, but I wonder if we as teachers are currently neglecting critical thinking skills and replace for memory skills. So emerging research, click the link in this video, delves into the balance between critical thinking and memory retention in students. And I wonder if we're becoming a little bit skewed with the online quizzes, we're losing the critical thinking approach. Students excel at memory retention, but often lag behind in critical thinking, which we know is crucial for academic success. So I wonder, how can we as teachers make a significant impact by designing in-class assignments, assessments, activities that challenge critical thinking whilst also harnessing memory skills? So our quizzes are developing memory skills. How do we develop critical thinking? This dual approach perhaps enhances students' adaptability and problem solving abilities. Now remember, don't set problem solving tasks to develop problem solving expertise. So some questions. How do your assessments measure memory, the quizzes, but also critical thinking? And are you providing opportunities for your students to problem solve and could a focus on critical thinking boost academic performance? Well, the research is conclusive. So think about resources, think about your current curriculum approach. How could you develop a more balanced cognitive skill set? Balancing critical thinking and memory is vital, but improving that critical thinking enhances academic performance. And that's a win for your students and a big win for your school.
