DESCRIPTION:Presentation: Motivating Durable Learning: Focused Attention th
 rough Instructional Design\n	Friday\, October 22\, 11:30am – 12:30pm\n\n Wa
 tch the recording View the slides\n\nIn this session\, Dr. Joe Kim will pr
 esent his research based on this question: How do you deliver a high-quali
 ty educational experience to 6000+ students and maintain an academically r
 igorous program that motivates deep learning? Research from cognitive psyc
 hology on attention\, memory and learning has informed pedagogical decisio
 ns to develop evidence-based interventions in education. A key focus has b
 een to promote learning that is durable – extending beyond short-term test
 ing into long-term retention of information that remains with the student 
 after the final exam. In this presentation\, Dr. Kim will discuss how acad
 emic performance is significantly improved with effective learning strateg
 ies that have been established in controlled lab studies and translated to
  the classroom. These practices work by strengthening long-term retention 
 and depend on instructors to implement effective instructional design and 
 students to take an active role in their own learning.\n\nProfile: Dr. Kim
