Peter C. Brown is a writer and co-author of *Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning*, written with cognitive scientists Henry L. Roediger III and Mark A. McDaniel. Drawing on research from cognitive psychology, the book challenges many commonly held beliefs about how people learn and remember information. In *Make It Stick*, Brown and his co-authors explore learning strategies such as retrieval practice, spacing, and mixing different kinds of problems, showing why methods that may feel more difficult can often produce stronger, longer-lasting learning.

Brown is a writer and co-author of *Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning*, written with cognitive scientists Henry L. Roediger III and Mark A. McDaniel. Drawing on research from cognitive psychology, the book challenges many commonly held beliefs about how people learn and remember information. In *Make It Stick*, Brown and his co-authors explore learning strategies such as retrieval practice, spacing, and mixing different kinds of problems, showing why methods that may feel more difficult can often produce stronger, longer-lasting learning. Brown brings the scientific research together through engaging stories and real-world examples, making complex ideas about memory and learning accessible beyond the academic world. For students, educators, professionals, and lifelong learners who have ever studied something only to forget it later, Brown’s work offers a different way to think about learning. Rather than simply spending more time studying, *Make It Stick* encourages readers to understand how memory actually works and use that knowledge to make what they learn more likely to last. See more
