Meet Me in the Middle: Chapter 3

Chapter 3: This chapter focuses on memory and how we can use this to get maximum memorization and retention. It focuses mostly on the brain aspect. A couple of techniques were mentioned in the chapter that are ways to help students remember various things in class. The use of a triad response in a class discussion would be a good way to keep students engaged and participating as well as helping them remember. Others that were mentioned was chunking, activities and bring emotion into a lesson. Students will remember things more easily if they can relate to them on a personal level.
