Closure: Making That Last Impression
By Rod Lucero, Colorado State University
Do you want your students to attach personal meaning and relevance to what they glean from your daily lessons? An effective "Closure" activity at the end of each class period can help with that objective, creating what psychologists call the Recency Effect, otherwise known as a last impression.
Ideally, closure activities create powerful learning effects at the tail-end of the class, something that will reverberate for hours after the lesson is over, something a little sticky.
Closing your lesson by reviewing the success criteria is a great way of validating the learning that has taken place for each of your students and for you as the teacher.
