The value of using tests in education as tools for learning—not just for assessment
Although students tend to dislike exams, tests—broadly defined in the present commentary
as opportunities to practice retrieving to-be-learned information—can function as one of the …

User-generated digital flashcards yield better learning than premade flashcards.
Digital flashcard users typically must choose between creating their own flashcard content or
using freely available flashcard sets. The latter is more convenient and saves time, but is it …

How do college students use digital flashcards during self-regulated learning?
Over the past two decades, digital flashcards–that is, computer programmes, smartphone
apps, and online services that mimic, and potentially improve upon, the capabilities of …

Memory out of context: Spacing effects and decontextualization in a computational model of the medial temporal lobe.
Some neural representations gradually change across multiple timescales. Here we argue
that modeling this “drift” could help explain the spacing effect (the long-term benefit of …

Virtual omnibus lecture: investigating the effects of varying lecturer avatars as environmental context on audience memory
We propose a novel form of remote lecturing, Virtual Omnibus Lecture, in which one lecturer
gives a lecture by changing his/her virtual avatars, giving students the experience of being …

Multiple Self-Avatar Effect: Effects of Using Diverse Self-Avatars on Memory Acquisition and Retention of Sign-Language Gestures
This study proposes a new learning method that employs multiple embodied self-avatars
during learning, to use the potential benefit of virtual reality (VR) for effective learning and …

Investigating the Effects of Changing the Appearance of Screen-Based Avatars on Audience Memory
The methods of displaying virtual agents and avatars as lecturers have been studied in
remote lectures and asynchronous education. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that …
