So you've chosen a research-backed early reading program that stresses systematic, synthetic phonics. What comes next? How do you get your teachers to teach it well? Some notes and a video... teachlikeachampion.org/blog/foundatio…

The idea that one might need to make the case for reading books might surprise those who haven’t spent much time in classrooms lately, but it is an argument that goes against entrenched beliefs that have come to predominate in schools. educationnext.org/why-are-books-…

I’m a fan of promoting oracy but I’d trade any number of reports, elaborate programmes, audits and high profile speech events for just having high quality pair talk feature strongly across every school. Build on that.

Thread on a very cool new study. What happens if you put eye tracking software on students and teach them using different PowerPoint slides? Implications and links to student attention, cognitive load and PowerPoint design 🧵

I’m not actually all that sure who Chris Rufo is honestly but I’m really proud to be on any team with @ehanford on it, even if it’s in the mind of a conspiracy theorist. Thank you that is all.

I'm honestly stumped, and asking for wise guidance: We know that *#narrative* is easier to understand and remember than *exposition.* But, realistically, how do we use that advice? How do teachers translate one to the other? ow.ly/VScq50QV2V0

Speaking as a teacher, having a quality curriculum to implement means I can leverage my time to give specific feedback, intervene, examine progress, collaborate/reflect… Don’t make us develop our own instruction. There are much wiser uses of our time and talent.

This is spot on. It's extraordinary that many who claim a progressive agenda are pushing things which make conditions demonstrably worse for teachers and students.

The main real critique of getting smartphones out of classrooms seems to be a kind of generalized aversion to the idea of enforcing any rules. slowboring.com/p/smartphones-…

Parents: Does this look negligible to you? Twice as many heavy users of social media are depressed vs. non-users, 3x among girls. (From the UK Millennium Cohort Study of 15-year-olds). And yes, there are experiments showing causation as well. thelancet.com/journals/eclin…
