WILLIAM WADSWORTH
About this episode
We're kicking off a new series on Memory & Learning with a deep-dive into memory fundamentals.

We're guided in this fascinating and illuminating conversation by Peps McCrea award-winning teacher educator and author. 

Even if you're familiar with some of the basics, Peps has a wonderful way of using analogy to deepen your intuition about what's really going on when we learn and later recall information.

With practical takeaways interspersed throughout, this episode is not to be missed!
