This is VERY depressing. Technology (as such) isn’t the issue either. It’s the top down, technocratic, & managerial logics that govern many school systems. Without deeper structural & pedagogical changes, technology will only ever make the status quo “more efficient.”

Conceptually Speaking: Dr. Andrea Gambino Talks Critical Media Literacy at @MrAleoSays @schoolrubric Listen to this episode and others at SchoolRubric: schoolrubric.org/podcast/concep…
What does knowledge building look like in secondary ELA & how can it aid #transfer? I'm using "Thinker/Theory" sketchnotes where Ss learn about a literary theorist & a key literary concept they can apply to multiple texts/contexts. Desire➡️Gatsby➡️ American Dream ➡️ ???

Ways to expand #studentlearning with active text processing and creation through a design perspective from @MrAleoSays @bradylnash @saraheconroy publicationsncte.org/content/journa… #literacycoach #educoach #celchat #educoach
If we *have to* use spatial metaphors to explain concepts, if schema are always depicted spatially, & if we emphasise connections only with words, doesn't that point to some sort of pedagogical lost opportunity where students could say "ah, I see what you mean!"?
The total amount of (education) research we produce is enormous, too much in my opinion. Obviously that means there's a lot of research of every quality. I think it's ludicrous to generalise about the quality of (education) research.
Lots of good dialogue emerging from our “Geo-Mapping Gatsby” activity! Ss using their visual/spatial #literacies to explore the relationship between psychological, social, economic, & geographical systems. #TeamEnglish #elachat #engchat
This post explores relations between language, cognition, and large language models, tracing theories on language origins and previewing implications for teaching, learning, and AI. It outlines sources to understand LLMs' statistical language foundations. languageandliteracy.blog/language-and-l…
I'm more guilty than most of presenting schema as neat, hierarchical structures. There are other views. Rosch's prototype theory is particularly persuasive, as is Hoffstadter who fuses analogies & chunking. Whichever you choose to believe, it should be loosely held.
Range by David Epstein: "But cultures can be too internally consistent. With incongruence, 'you're building in cross-checks'". P.257
💯 Freire, the guy who risked his life teaching Brazilian peasants how to read & created a new branch of educational philosophy was an intellectual lightweight. The 374 blogs on CLT written by the “Hard Boiz of #Cogsci™️” have been a WAY more substantial gift to the field. 🙏
I am THRILLED to be able to do what I love again this summer! I haven't offered my Make Writing Pop-Up studio weeks since before the pandemic. Back at it this summer. I'd love to come make and write and learn with you!
@Suchmo83 Teaching text structure improves reading comprehension. It's not just strategies vs. content knowledge. Many experimental studies and meta-analyses confirm this (Bogaerds-Hazenberg et al., 2022; Hebert et al., 2016; Peng et al., 2023; Pyle et al., 2016). Happy to share links!
Critical Pedagogy: A Teacher’s Companion will be published on Friday. The book provides a refreshing perspective on English secondary education and discusses why critical pedagogy is more essential than ever for our marginalised and oppressed students. johncattbookshop.com/products/criti…

2K Followers 889 Following Director, English and Media Centre, author of Creativity and Learning in Secondary English (Routledge)From what students tell us in @HumResPro focus groups, their perception is that it's individual screen-based work 90%+ of the time (as opposed to collaborative, hands-on schoolwork). Their desired amount? ~50%. We've got a ways to go. 😬
I worry quite a bit about what % of school for students right now is basically independent work staring at a computer screen—often with headphones on, too.
The pressure we hear from teachers is that they "have to use" the curriculum programs & packages that districts purchase, which are increasingly designed not to be taught so much as delivered, and that delivery looks like sitting in front of a screen w/ headphones on. 😩
@CovingtonEDU @HumResPro I know there a million constraints on what teachers get to teach. But this criteria is never considered. 😭
@eduleadership To suggest educator concerns about this study are driven by ideology while dismissing the obvious flaws/limitations in the study (and it’s highly ideological sponsor) is insulting which is why I take this tone with you
@eduleadership This is a motivator for my use of “proxy” to operationalize high expectations requires classroom data about teacher practices - not grades
@eduleadership Suggesting grading that is alignment with standardized tests is a good measure of high expectations is a problem because it does nothing to measure any of the elements associated with high expectations in the literature Eg
@eduleadership I don’t know that I have time to convey my critique in twitter but the fordham report is saying teachers whose grading is aligned to standardized tests produce students who do better on standardized tests. Standardized tests are useful but biased
@eduleadership The study is not published in a peer reviewed The study is correlational The study uses grades as a proxy for high expectations but this relates hip has not been validated in the literature Everyone who follows science knows never to do anything based on a single study
Got the copyedits on my next book back and mustering up the courage to open the file and see what a dolt I am.
We need one acronym to rule them all, one acronym to find them, one acronym to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
Eagerly awaiting the inevitable war between the research-informed cognitive load people and the acronym people. Choose your warm-strict fighters
@TeachPhysicsUK No, I can't show you that because schools, dozens of subjects, don't uniquely adopt one or another approach. I do think that they tend more to the broad Rosenshine EI because that's broad enough to encompass many, many forms of instruction. I don't think there will...
@TeachPhysicsUK I frankly don't even know how to respond because the tweets are so off-topic. I'm sure you think it all makes sense, but it doesn't. But I'll humour you to first respond anyway and then explain why it has nothing to do with the original point.
@eduleadership Not saying we can't get an idea of how to teach well based on research (I'm a PhD student in Education). More saying that education is really hard to make grand statements about because there are competing values and philosophies about why, how, and what we teach. +
@eduleadership So I can make a great case for direct instruction, for example, if I operate in a closed loop system and my goal is a narrow one: showing facts on an exam (and there's a good case for that here and there). +
@eduleadership But what if my goal isn't mastery of facts, but say, problem solving or collaboration? Things get really complicated there because we are now talking about "the point" of education... and there are many, competing points. +
@eduleadership And to close, there are many ideologically loaded think tanks and ed organizations who are not above bias or motivation... if the funding sources are in league with folks who want to defund/dismantle public ed, we have every right to be skeptical.
To West's point, I think one of the most important arguments for progressivism and equality isn't a futural expectation of impossible utopia. It's a recognition of our shared and equal frailty and weakness...
One of the reasons for liberal socialism is that allowing enormous concentrations of wealth and power is dangerous because it enables the enormous expression of human vulgarity and the lust for domination-and worse, glamorizes it.
Cool interview with @CornelWest by @seanilling. Especially interesting for situating West in the history of American pragmatism and its emphasis on experience and dialogue podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bes…
