Beschreibung
"Learning Through Teaching" explores the powerful concept of learning-by-teaching, revealing how instructing others significantly enhances the teacher's own understanding and knowledge retention. This book examines the cognitive mechanisms behind this phenomenon, emphasizing that explaining concepts, anticipating questions, and tailoring information forces a deeper level of processing than passive learning alone. The text highlights the practical applications of this effect in educational settings and its broader implications for lifelong learning.
The book unfolds systematically, first introducing the cognitive processes involved in learning-by-teaching, such as knowledge organization and error detection. It then examines studies demonstrating its effectiveness in various settings, including peer tutoring and collaborative projects. Finally, the book offers guidelines for incorporating learning-by-teaching strategies into classrooms and self-directed learning programs.
By synthesizing research from educational psychology, cognitive science, and instructional design, "Learning Through Teaching" provides a unique perspective on optimizing learning strategies and improving active learning.
