Matt Gibson spends a lot of his time thinking about how people learn. As a fifth grade math teacher and instructional coach in New Orleans, Gibson has become increasingly interested in effective teaching informed by cognitive science —otherwise known as learning science—and how it can help teachers improve their practice. That’s thanks in large part to Gibson’s participation as a coaching fellow at the Louisiana Resource Center for Educators.

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.

Parents know the investment of quality toys can be financially costly but worth it for toys that last the test of time for years to come. The signs of well-loved toys are the ones that usually contain remnants of crusty food, smudged peanut butter fingerprints, and molecules of the unseen…germs. Thankfully the non-toxic and food-grade ABS plastic of Magna Tiles makes cleaning these durable STEM toys effortless for busy families.
