Carl will talk to us about the researchED movement and the paradoxes of learning that he presented on at the conference. Then, we will go on over to the panel that we recorded live in Greenwich, and hear from Pedro De Bruyckere, Tom Sherrington, and Patrice Bain. I want to thank Marshall Escamilla for helping me to enhance the so ..read more

Today I visited Morningside Academy, an evidence-informed school that I featured on Progressively Incorrect last month. While Morningside is famous amongst educators with a behavior analysis background, it is practically unknown by teachers – including me, until recently – on EduTwitterX. The few short hours I spent at Morningside left me absolutely blown away by this charming school, and I’ve become a major believer in behavioral education. What makes Morningside so special? Perhaps the most striking feature of Morningside is that students are not grouped by age or grade, but homogeneously by ..read more

Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect. My name is Dr. Zach Groshell and this week I am excited to be bringing you the 2nd episode of my series on Direct Instruction, this time with Linda Carnine, Susie Andrist, and Jerry Silbert. They are going to be talking about what it was like to be on the ground, in their 20s, in the largest education study in the history of education, which, despite it being akin to education’s moon landing, is practically unknown amongst people who claim to be experts in education. This podcast is brought to you by John Catt Educational, which is hosting its online Co ..read more

Every week, I write a short blurb about teaching and learning for my school’s parent newsletter. I’ve decided to post old ones on this site from time to time. If you’re interested in training on the Science of Learning for this or next year, please get in touch. – Dr. G What is the Science of Learning? Parents sometimes assume that most of the teaching their child receives is “based on” or “informed by” research. In some cases, it is. At the moment, there is a movement spreading across the globe – from the UK, to Australia, to pockets of the United States – around what is called the “science o ..read more

In a previous post, I talked about 10 Popular Yet Questionable Instructional Coaching Dogmas. If you go to that post, you can listen to me talk about them on Teachers Talk Radio. Right around that time, I took to Twitter to ask educators what they thought about each of the dogmas, and lots of people answered. While the responses varied, I think it’s clear that not everyone agrees with the conventional wisdom in instructional coaching. Here are the results of those polls. Do they tell us anything? If you're an instructional coach or have experienced instructional coaching, let me hear your t ..read more
