Does this resonate? “There is a danger that we become too purist, and in rejecting everything because it isn’t *quite right, we end up with nothing but principles.”
Naive question: why is Quality Teaching Rounds still being promoted and sucking funding if it only works (modestly) when the researchers deliver it?
"Teachers are expected to be both expert lesson deliverers and instruction designers. Significantly, this expectation is something the profession tends to valorize; it didn’t drift into it. There is no evidence that this practice benefits students." the74million.org/article/40-yea…
Oral reading fluency (ORF), in many studies, has a 0.7 - 0.9 coefficient correlation with reading comprehension. That’s one of the most mind blowing statistics I’ve come across in education. Thanks @janhasbrouck
"Gifted musicians in an orchestra generally do not write the symphonies they play. We do not think less of a talented actor who merely performs but did not write a Shakespearean tragedy. Teachers, by noteworthy contrast.." 1/2 the74million.org/article/40-yea…
Explicit Teaching is a key priority for our system. Evidence-informed teaching and learning for all students. No more choose your own adventure. #schoolexcellence

I met @manisha_gazula via the @CISOZ in Australia when I visited. She had our Michaela book, Power of Culture. She does the same trad stuff as we do, and guess what? Her primary school is working wonders. Tradition works! 👌🏽 abc.net.au/news/2024-03-2…
Thanks for the share, Trisha! I am excited to connect with schools and teachers directly in this research-informed SOLAR Lab short course to bring principles from the science of learning to life. Don't miss out! Starting 1 May!

Outstanding feedback! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
At the end of the day, a casual teacher sought me out to praise the amazing phonic knowledge our children have, as well as their sentence writing ability. She also noted how everything was so consistent across the school. She said, “what an amazing place to work!” Yep it is!
@CBreasley we’re very grateful for your knowledge, skills and expertise. Thankyou!

What is research evidence and why is it important? If you’re a service, school or educational leader who often gets asked this, you’re in luck.
@CarterM_PTL @dizdarm @Forbes4Nathan @abc730 Thank you Matt. You too are are doing a fab job 👍🏻@CarterM_PTL

@MrsSpalding @ReneeIAnson1 People can manage their own online use. I used to say to our staff, if you don't want to get emails out of hours, turn notifications off and don't check them. Why do you have the right to restrict others work
Hmmm I now have 16 emails with delayed delivery for various times on Monday and honestly guys are we sure that’s better than just hitting ‘send’ when it’s written…? 🤨
Does this resonate? “There is a danger that we become too purist, and in rejecting everything because it isn’t *quite right, we end up with nothing but principles.”
Naive question: why is Quality Teaching Rounds still being promoted and sucking funding if it only works (modestly) when the researchers deliver it?
@belinda_bristol I love that it is more specific than previous guidance, even in the CESE docs.
