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.

Are you ready for some foosball? Your students will love this STEM activity and you will, too. (It’s a free resource!) I still remember playing foosball when I was a teenager. We lived overseas, in Germany. I was an Army kid! Yep, grew up in Germany where we lived on an Army base, went to American schools, and all of us were from the states. I could write a whole blog post on what it meant to grow up in that culture… but today we are talking all about foosball!

Families are children’s first and consistent educators. Tapping into family engagement strategies can be the “secret sauce” to supporting a child’s engagement in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). When families learn and play together, the possibilities for children to explore new talents are endless. These opportunities help build confidence and creativity and may inspire a lifelong passion for STEM.

I've shared broadly my " double the speed of a cart " in-class laboratory exercises. This is my introduction to Bertha's Rule of Ones. In each of four situations, students use simple kinematics equations and semi-quantitative reasoning to predict a factor of change. One exercise asks students to roll a cart down an incline, then double the cart's mass - what happens to the maximum speed of the cart on the same incline?

The word “meritocracy” has reached new heights, becoming ubiquitous in everyday conversation and in debates about identity politics. The concept is seemingly simple: Strong ability yields well-earned roles in the workforce. And yet, in the tech sector where I work, I bear witness to a world of gender and racial homogeneity that fails to represent the gender and racial heterogeneity of the United States.
