Edgar Dale's Pyramid of Learning in medical education: Further expansion of the myth | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it
From onlinelibrary.wiley.com - February 5, 2020 9:32 PM
A mythical Pyramid of Learning, usually attributed to Edgar Dale (or the National Training Laboratories [NTL]) and giving student learning retention rates, has been cited in a wide range of educational literature. A 2013 literature review indicated that medical education literature similarly cites this Pyramid. It was hoped that highlighting this myth in that review would reduce references to the Pyramid in future medical education literature. This study aimed at determining what change in Pyramid citation has occurred in the past 5 years.
