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.

April 25th-30th. My wonderful sister is visiting from Marion, Indiana. She is uncomfortable flying, hasn’t been back here since my mother’s funeral. I can’t overstate how excited I am to see her. As a result, I won’t be around much the next week–a bit, but mostly, we’ll be talking, visiting, exploring, walking… See you-all in a week!

The metaverse is the latest tech frontier, with Facebook ( now called Meta ) and other tech giants rushing to build a parallel social and professional universe in virtual and augmented reality. And plenty of schools and colleges are wondering: Will this new realm work for education? A new study co-authored by one of the world’s most prominent researchers on the effectiveness of edtech, Richard Mayer, offers some answers to that question.

Creating a culture that is student-centered, equity-focused, and future-driven does not happen without systemic and strategic work. A district needs to engage in cycles of improvement…building the foundation is hard and will vary depending on the culture in each individual district. Transformative actions that are taken will probably not be sustainable without a culture or framework that supports the work.

In the last few years, bipartisanship has come to seem more like a practice from folklore than any political reality that would pass through legislative buildings today. So it means something when a body of elected officials in the U.S. votes unanimously to approve a bill. And it meant something earlier this month when Maine’s state legislature voted 130 to 0 on a proposal to supplement the wages of child care workers.

I am a geologist and I teach at a college. Geology is a fascinating science, because it lets me think about rocks and minerals, volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, plate tectonics, climate change, and water. I grew up on an acre of land outside of south Detroit (Wayne, Michigan). As a kid, my dog and I would slip under a fence and climb a “mountain” behind our property.

A new effort is trying to bring a fresh approach to gifted education—and it doesn’t take place in a school building. It’s a homeschool curriculum and support system, with a somewhat unusual boarding school option that involves taking small groups of students on a kind of educational road trip.

We live in a digital age which gives us many benefits. However, many kids have lost a connection to working with their hands. When kids create, they take pride in what they’ve made, break down complex ideas, collaborate with others, and learn skills that can save or earn them money. Mike Schloff created Maplewoodshop in 2016 to help all children develop life skills through woodworking in any classroom.

By my second year of teaching through the pandemic, despite my best efforts to remain optimistic, I could not shake the feeling that the education system was taking a turn for the worse. The hope that the pandemic would force leaders to reevaluate their priorities concerning education seemed to dwindle by the day.
