Strategy framework

Macaro article

• strategies occur in the brain and in working memory
• the description of the strategy is related to a goal, a situation and a mental action
• strategies are essential for processing information, not just for faster processing
• almost all learners have access to strategies
• the essential nature of the strategy is constant
• which strategy is selected and how it is used depends on the nature of the task and the problems that entail
• successful learning does not depend on how often a strategy is used but how the user integrates/manages/employs the chosen strategy
