Research about Studying, Learning, Teaching

I need articles about learning, teaching or studying to share with students or parents. Sometimes this is reactive, in order to defend my approach to things. More and more it's because I want to try to change the way these people think about learning.

Here are articles that I want to bookmark for later. Maybe you'll find them helpful too.
