Thank you Kirsty for launching this debate, 
It’s one that we all wonder about. 
If you wanted to share something quick with staff 
I found a few interesting articles and blogs around unlearning and relearning in a business context.

For more formal academic research Emily Klein seems to be cited in teacher training materials https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ810659.pdf

This article around learning in the lifelong learning sector might also be of interest http://www.patricklowenthal.com/publications/LLLandWeb20preprint.pdf

The links below are specifically around fossilisation

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of any useful research or have any techniques that work well to help students overcome fossilised errors? Any help would be really appreciated.

Regards

Kirsty
