Talk:Cognitive Testing

changing category to topic[edit | edit source]

Hey User:DG, would you mind if I change the category of this page to "topic" and the title to "cognitive testing"? I'm trying to remove the 'collection pages' of tools, so only individual tools stay in the "tools" category (but individual cognitive testing tool pages could go into a respective tool-subcategory). The advantage of having this page as a topic is that more content will be backlinked to the page (especially more project pages, and tool pages can be linked).

OK. DG (talk) 00:19, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

Done! Now the backlinks show 30 linked projects, nice. Katoss (talk) 14:32, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

In fact, it seems like a better predictor of this than asking myself 'do I expect to be good at cognition today?'."

Gary recommends blog on memory[edit | edit source]

https://www.learningscientists.org/blog/2016/5/10-1 retrieval vs storage strength memory is about propriate recall to not get overwhelmed with sense data. " we should not do so immediately after having just studied (or taught) it, when retrieval strength is still very high." retreival strength is not always high and therefore there should be a test! see Ultralearning.
