Nearly 20 years ago, Google made an ambitious play to digitize the content of some of the world’s largest research libraries. It seemed like the beginning of a new era, when scholars and the public could make new connections and discoveries in the kind of mass digital library that had previously been the stuff of science fiction. But it soon became clear the actual plan would turn out to be far more controversial than its organizers probably ever imagined.

Last year, Tammy Shreiner and I received NSF funding to develop and evaluate computational supports for helping social studies teachers to teach data literacy and computing(see post here ). We’re excited about what we’re doing and what we’re learning. Here’s an update on where we’re at on the project. Teaspoon Languages. We have a chapter in the new book by Aman Yadav and Ulf Dalvad Berthelsen Computational Thinking in Education: A Pedagogical Perspective.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Five years ago, I published a book on the future of university credentials, making some predictions about what seemed likely to come next in the market for degrees and emerging forms of alternative college credentials. In this time of uncertainty amidst a growing pandemic, it seems worth taking a minute to see how accurate those predictions were and to provide an update, considering the unexpected and unprecedented developments of the past few years.

As we close out the end of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic remains as relevant as it has ever been in the last 18 months. For schools, this means being flexible to adapt to new outbreaks and recommendations by health departments and government bodies. This can include shifting to a hybrid learning model with part-time in the classroom and part-time at home, or it can include fully remote learning where students learn 100% from their own homes.

The lasting impact of the pandemic has become clearer as students and educators returned to the classroom this year. The gap between the "haves" and "have-nots" has become wider and more acute. Teacher shortages and burnout have risen considerably. And educators, already stretched thin, have been challenged to not only meet all students where they are in their learning, but also support their emotional needs as they cope during a crisis.
