Chunking Lessons to Increase Retention

This technique helps Teachers to increase attention in the lessons by chunking each lesson.
Research: Joan Middendorf and Alan Kalish, in 1996 published a remarkably detailed account of the ebbs and flows of college students’ focus during a typical class. Breaking the session down minute by minute, the professors determined that students needed a three- to five- minute period of settling down, which would be followed by ten to eighteen minutes of optimal focus. Then-no matter how good the teacher or how compelling the subject matter- the kids would lose it. Attention would eventually return, but in ever briefer packets, falling to three or four minutes towards the end of a standard lecture.

Chunking is a great way to learn and recall, I would also add in a small quiz or something to asses knowledge and then a recall task in the following lesson to see what has been remembered.

I am both a student (for life I hope!) & a teacher and I very much enjoy your videos. You're able to provide a large amount of information in compact, engaging shorts. The active illustration combined with pleasing though non-typical voice-over actors, well.. works! I have ADHD undiagnosed 'till age 40 so I am acutely aware of what is or isn't dynamically engaging. My only comment is on the use of Columbus as a teaching model example for anything other than the scourge he & all "explorers" unleashed upon every indigenous civilization which they encountered. I am not criticizing for the sake of it but trying to point out the disparity between the excellent teaching/learning models you're so skillfully presenting and the example of Columbus' voyages which was boring, biased bull#*+t in the 1960s, if you'll pardon my french, but today is generally considered nonsense and not History. Okay, rave complete! So I thank you all for your most worthy work which is unrivaled in excellence. Please keep up the desperately needed, good work!

I am a student .Yes this is a good idea ,we should make the students to imagine and tell their imagination to the teacher , for students this might be like a competition , by keeping that in mind they will create new imagination. Yeah , this is a good idea for grammar

great short video. I don't give breaks, but I do have students turn and talk and move around so it feels like they're getting a break in cognition.

I like how the christopher columbus part was put I think that's how his part of history should be taught anyways because I think it might be false or covering something else up that happened in that time during his adventure.
