Oh, look, a deep dive into Bloom's two sigma problem 💭🔍—because what the world really craved was a systematic review on educational methods that only grad students and pedagogical purists will read. 📚🤓 Spoiler: Mastery learning, #tutoring, and direct instruction might work...who knew?! 🎓💡 Your move, education system. 👀

I still think this old blogpost from 2016 provides a great analogy to help understand why #DirectInstruction is a useful (hence important) TOOL in #mathed, but not an effective METHOD. #education #learning #math #cycling http://devlinsangle.blogspot.com/2016/12/you-can-find-secret-to-doing.html

RT @greg_ashman : Response to De Jong et al.’s (2023) paper “Let's talk evidence – The case for combining inquiry-based and #DirectInstruction ”

Classic case: #directinstruction vs. #PBL

@rebeccatickell whoah- Amazing that Rosenshine’s principles have come up 4 times this week! We are working to embed these in our teaching by making things explicit, including teaching with slides that have icons to tell the students what our focus should be eg listening, reciting, discussing, checking for understanding, review etc. Exciting times 😁 #evidencebasedteaching #directinstruction #scienceoflearning
