2027 Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning Quarter 3 Book Club

Join us for MSTA’s 3rd Quarter "Beyond the Book" Club, featuring Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning by Peter Brown, Henry Roediger, & Mark McDaniel.


What if some of the most common study strategies are actually the least effective? In this book, you'll uncover surprising research about how people truly learn and explore powerful techniques that improve long-term retention, transfer of knowledge, and durable understanding. You'll leave with a fresh perspective on instruction and practical strategies that help students remember more, think more deeply, and become independent, lifelong learners.
