This is a topic every teacher I know is talking about. BAM Radio has a couple of podcasts you’ll enjoy: Why Some Educators Are Convinced Artificial Intelligence Can Make Teaching Less Stressful Millions of schoolchildren walked into their classrooms at the start of the academic year missing one crucial element that should have set them up for success: the prior knowledge they needed to take on a new grade level.

How can teachers engage students to learn problem-solving skills across the curriculum? One program has set out to teach computational thinking (CT) and coding skills in a problem-centered approach, fostering a student-driven learning design. In the process, students develop persistence and creativity while teachers connect their learning with professional standards aligned with ISTE micro-credentials.

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.

Table of Contents Elephants are giants! They are the largest land mammals on the planet, weighing in at 4 to 6 tons, and measuring between 18–24 feet long. For reference, the Liberty Bell only weighs one ton. You might think that because elephants are so large, they could have trouble swimming. However, elephants can swim! Their swimming skills are much more impressive than you might expect, and science shows us why elephants can splash around easily in the water.

Hi! If you are reading this, you may know that I'm science department chair at Woodberry Forest School, a boarding school for boys in central Virginia. Our long time biology teacher is retiring, and we're looking for someone to join our department. Teaching at boarding school is, well, different from teaching in a day school - different in a way I find particularly appealing.

The original version of this essay was published by the TRiiBE. In my 16 years teaching in Chicago Public Schools (CPS), I have lost more students than years I have taught. During my teacher preparation in college, I had fears about how to create engaging lesson plans, how to make connections with students and how to help students who needed more support.
