New Course Launch

Hey

Hope you’re keeping that heart rate down. Although, I might well destabilise things with a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT this week…

Big idea announcement 📣

For the last 9 months, I’ve been working with a bunch of very talented people (teachers, videographers, editors) to build out the world’s best course for teachers.

And today: it goes live.

Evidence Informed Teaching is a 6-part course exploring the best available research around effective education and what it looks like in practice, all hung around a model of how learning happens. It includes:

• Fancy videos explaining the big ideas (featuring yours truly)

• Concise evidence summaries organised around classroom scenarios

• Interactive retrieval quizzes, pre-trieval quizzes & action planning support

• All linked to 10s of deeper dive modules & 100s of teaching action steps

🎓 For more, check out this free sample video and this everything-you-need-to-know article.

Little updates 🥕

• Study on how reading helps improve maths skills → shows reading skills are stronger predictors of maths success than motivation & engagement.

• Research exploring the benefits of intentional mistakes → argues that learners who make deliberate errors unlock greater long-term memory retention.

• Systematic review of air pollution and learner outcomes → identifies a significant causal relationship between the two.

• Study investigating story-based interventions → finds learners made improvements with their literacy & cognitive skills.
