If a student continues a failed strategy by only increasing effort, which expert improvement is needed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Strategy review and method change
Effort is useful only when the chosen method is helping learning. If results remain poor, the student should review evidence, identify the weak step, seek feedback, and change the strategy—for example, using retrieval practice, worked examples, or spaced revision. Simply spending longer on an ineffective method may repeat the same failure.
