Book — The Learning Scientists
Quick summaries of key points from each chapter in a book on learning science and effective strategies (spacing, elaboration, concrete examples, visuals, and retrieval practice). I wish the graphics were easier to read though. Medium blue italicized serif text on a lighter blue background isn't enough contrast. I don't think low contrast counts as desirable difficulty, just bad accessibility.

GUEST POST: The Emerging Consensus — The Learning Scientists
This is an interesting summary of research, compiling conclusions from multiple types of research. While I'm skeptical of most claims about neuroscience research directly informing learning design, this tries to avoid that. Neuroscience research is used to explain results from cognitive psychology research. They also try to connect cognitive research on the other side with classroom experience.
