ALT Illustrated blog banner for an education article titled Retrieval Is Not a Starter Activity. A teacher leads a discussion with pupils while a mathematical problem involving trigonometry is displayed on a whiteboard. The scene emphasises the use of prior knowledge to solve new problems, with visual references to retrieval, method selection, connection-making and application. The design conveys the idea that retrieval is most powerful when embedded naturally within the story of learning rather than used as a disconnected classroom routine.
