You’ve been teaching for five years and love what you’re doing. You consider yourself darn lucky to be working with colleagues that are friends and a boss who always puts your needs first.

So, you don’t bother to keep your resume up-to-date or expand your teaching skills other than what is required for your position.

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.

A version of this article was originally published on Medium. There are always new products coming out in the edtech landscape, but somehow a couple software platforms monopolize the industry and are used by teachers everywhere, leaving smaller companies and edtech startups facing an uphill battle.

Who gets to learn about computer science in school? While a growing number of schools offer some form of computer-science class or after-school program, such offerings are still far more common in well-resourced districts than those that primarily serve underprivileged students, and more boys take them than girls. It’s an issue that two researchers at UCLA, Jane Margolis and Jean Ryoo, have been digging into in their scholarly work—a phenomenon they call “preparatory privilege.
