Description

Desirable Difficulties is a phrase to describe research conducted by Robert and Elizabeth Bjork (1992). It made clear the importance of an old distinction between performance, the ability of learners to produce a correct answer or a problem-solving procedure during the instructional process, and learning, as measured by the ability to sometime later, after the instructional process, produce that answer or procedure in contexts where it is needed. The challenge is to change the learning habits of students.
