Dual Coding in the Primary Classroom
In this session, Chris will explore Paivio’s Dual Coding Theory and how it can be used to make learning stick.
All of us have cognitive limits which, due to the limitations of working memory, are easily exceeded. Paivio’s research into Dual Coding helps teachers to plan learning activities that have been proven to help students to remember curriculum content more effectively.
This course rounds up the theory in an easily understandable way and provides many practical examples of its application in the primary curriculum.
