Our blogger frequently warns against overdecorated classrooms. This blog post from @Brad_Nguyen_ echoes many of his concerns: ow.ly/8TJF50RhfcW
We know that #working-memory overload is TERRIBLE for students. We don't often focus on this fact: it's just as bad for teachers. I've got some thoughts about the problem, and some solutions: ow.ly/8cjZ50R607j and ow.ly/u0uF50R607k
What does it mean to "know" something? And, how does our answer to that question influence an approach to a "#knowledge-rich curriculum"? As always, @MrMountstevens has wise answers to complex questions: ow.ly/qOq650RheY6
Join Dr. Immordino-Yang this summer to examine the social-emotional needs of children & young adults •Study effects of experience on students’ psychosocial development •Support students post-pandemic •Encourage students to drive their own learning ow.ly/q2pX50Rh8IL
Our blogger summarizes a recent #motivation study this way: * Teachers often assume that “when my students feel motivated, they will learn more.” * These data suggest that “when my students learn more, they feel motivated.” Curious? Read on... ow.ly/kkCi50RgLqM
More research into #aphantasia: "People who can't visualise an image in their mind's eye are less likely to remember the details of important past personal events or to recognise faces." More here: ow.ly/7rzH50RgLmn
I am thrilled to finally be able to share that, since 2020, I’ve had the honor of working with the incredible team at Pixar on *Inside Out 2*. Riley’s 13 - a teenager now! - and bubbling with complex new emotions. There’s much more to come! #InsideOut2 hits theaters on June 14.
It would be SO HELPFUL if someone would do a study about PowerPoint slide design. As in: where do people actually LOOK? Happily, @BradleyKBusch walks us through just such a study... ow.ly/948z50Re600
Does #memorization help students USE the facts they know? @PsyDocCindy explores this question with Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath: ow.ly/sB4Y50R636w
Jon Haidt's argument about *The Anxious Generation* is getting a lot of attention. But, not everyone agrees with his interpretation of complex data. Here's one attempt to explore differing interpretations: ow.ly/bLWS50RgLgQ
Thanks @SChewPsych for this fabulous graphic about choke points... SO useful, great for discussion. Visually useful for teacher AND students!
You want to effectively engage students in #math practice? Support math vocabulary learning? Learn how multiple representations help students understand math concepts and procedures? Discover ways to build #fluency? Join @sarahpowellphd online, May 4: learningandthebrain.com//conference-52…
In this thread, the RELENTLESSLY wise @SCottinghatt considers TEACHER learning alongside STUDENT learning. Headlines: * Important similarities (e.g.: danger of cognitive overload) * Important differences (e.g.: necessarily complex environment) ow.ly/ykvz50Re5ET
We know that #working-memory overload is TERRIBLE for students. In this double post, our blogger writes that it's just as bad for teachers. He explains the problem, and offers solutions: ow.ly/vX4w50R5ZUz and ow.ly/FtVV50R5ZUA
Once again - refreshing clarity from @DTWillingham. Love how he explores results of studies - evaluating them, not just taking them at face value. @learningandtheb
Some students are motivated to *succeed right now.* Others, to *figure things out over time.* Does this difference matter? This very recent study suggests "yes" -- especially if you're stealing from a museum. (Note further caveats...) ow.ly/naE250QV9SW
Is "relevance" the solution for fostering #intrinsic #motivation in math students? This blogger isn't so sure... axiommaths.com/blog/relevance…
How can we foster #CriticalThinking to promote tangible #equity in education? @ColinESeale talks with @sbkaufman: ow.ly/MnMX50Qu5Js Want to know more? You can meet BOTH authors at our conference next week in NYC. ow.ly/cNvW50Qu5Jq
You'd like a book that offers practical, research-based advice on student #motivation? Our reviewer says: run, don't walk, to read @ayeletfishbach's *Get It Done.* ow.ly/FGqM50R3MGx

Just coming back from @learningandtheb Future Ready Brains in NYC. What an inspiring group of speakers and attendees! Our youth have so much on their plates right now— but they also have a huge number of people invested in supporting them and their unique brains. I’m optimistic.
@thinkLawUS @learningandtheb @ColinESeale I am so glad I am able to view your session via recording! Thank you so much for signing my books! Btw, love the tshirt quote!
I am so grateful I experienced that presentation in person and got to learn from Sir Simon Baron-Cohen @learningandtheb #LatB68 His work matters. 🙏🏼
I am looking forward to this session~ “The Pattern Seekers: How Autism Drives Human Invention” by: Sir Simon Baron-Cohen 🌈 #LatB68
Once again - refreshing clarity from @DTWillingham. Love how he explores results of studies - evaluating them, not just taking them at face value. @learningandtheb
Fabulous to meet @DTWillingham at @learningandtheb … such a legend.
Some students are motivated to *succeed right now.* Others, to *figure things out over time.* Does this difference matter? This very recent study suggests "yes" -- especially if you're stealing from a museum. (Note further caveats...) ow.ly/naE250QV9SW
In a future built by AI, will students still need critical thinking? Tomorrow at the @learningandtheb Future-Ready Brains Conference @ColinESeale will present on how it's more important than ever that schools teach kids how to tap into their own AI (actual intellect). #LatB68
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You'd like a book that offers practical, research-based advice on student #motivation? Our reviewer says: run, don't walk, to read @ayeletfishbach's *Get It Done.* ow.ly/FGqM50R3MGx
@SarahNorsworth3 I wish to someday go to a @learningandtheb conference/workshop.
@learningandtheb I had a similar thought. If I figure it out, I'll write a blog post.
@learningandtheb @ChantelPratPhD More times than you know!!!
I just found that my book is the featured book of the month for @SolutionTree publishing. I’ve got to admit, I think that’s pretty cool! solutiontree.com/shop/overview
Should teachers provide students with #feedback BEFORE they get the #grades? I tried this approach when I was a teacher. And now, I've got some research too... ow.ly/mmp750QRLMm
@learningandtheb @RobertTalbert I will take this into consideration. We often get overwhelmed with the thought of dealing with an entire system that may seem broken, when there are small challenges that could be met head-on and great things within the system that can be successfully implemented.
Excited to talk about AI at this conference with a keynote and workshop! #aiforedu
This conference will explore the science of our unique brains and what skills we need to thrive in an automated age. Discover ways to incorporate AI in class, teach critical and creative thinking, and develop the skills and potential of all students.
Brand new talk on curiosity….
Where should we start talking about #curiosity? Just for fun, let's start here with @toddkashdan: ow.ly/1nKr50QUT6T And, you can hear from him directly at our NYC conference in April: ow.ly/Gp3o50QUT6S
