Concernedctparent mentioned in a comment that she's going to read Dan Willingham's articles, so I'm posting the link here (it's on the sidebar as well).
The most important one is Inflexible Knowledge: The First Step to Expertise.
I think my pick for number two is Practice Makes Perfect - But Only if You Practice Beyond the Point of Perfection.
After that I think I'd read Allocating Student Study Time.
The Privileged Status of Story is fantastic, too.
They're all good - enjoy!

These were great. Thanks for bringing them back.
Thanks for organizing this!
I never remember to check back for what the Cognitive Scientist is up to! This will help.
Thanks for saving me lots of time googling. Looks like I'm going to have a busy week! Can't wait to get started... Gracias
These should always be VERY quickly findable, too. Just type in Willingham in the search line. I'm sure that will bring it up.
