Self-publishing Ebooks will be the biggest side hustle in 2026:
• Can be made with AI in 1 day
• Only requires 3-5 hours a week
• Can rinse & repeat as many times as you want
So I created a Full Guide showing the system I used to make $1M+ with them...
I could charge $1000+ for this, but today I'm giving it away for FREE:

Happy New Year! 🎊🎆 My first morning of 2026 has been dedicated to digging deeper into research used to support the choice-based models growing in popularity in the US. 🤓 ☕️ 📖
Here we go.
King-Sears et al. (2023) is the meta-analysis CAST often cites when saying UDL “supports” student learning outcomes not necessarily that it improves them. That wording matters. 🧵🚩

🧵I’m not sure where to start. I’ve done this type of teaching before, and it’s simply unsustainable and not effective. I understand the appeal. It’s similar to learning styles. It sounds like it makes sense: give students lots of choice and they will want to learn, and therefore learn more. This plays well in short video clips like this and on paper, but it’s not realistic especially from a planning or implementation perspective. Just look at this chart. No one can, or should, attempt to do this. The chart shows why. It’s a menu of preferences, not instruction. Planning and implementing parallel options like this for every lesson is wildly inefficient and unmanageable. Teachers end up spreading their attention thin, coherence suffers, and instruction weakens. Learning doesn’t improve because students choose preferred formats; it improves when methods match the task and are grounded in evidence. This isn’t realistic, sustainable, or effective. 1/4

And lastly, if I had to single out one book as my favorite read of 2025—an absurd, impossible ask!!!—then it’s this.
It’s a brilliant, heartbreaking work. It intimidates the hell out of me as a writer. And hurts the hell out of me as a human.
We are forever in DeWitt’s debt.

Direct Instruction (DI) provides a clear path for evaluating instructional design. Here are 20 rules and recommendations for effective programs:
1. Maintain stable difficulty. Difficulty should rise slowly and predictably so students never hit a sudden cognitive spike.

Really interesting new paper on using 'contrasting erroneous example' as a means of preventing common misconceptions.
The worked example effect shows that novices benefit from step-by-step clarity, while this paper suggests that once some foundations are in place, contrasting erroneous examples can push learning further by clarifying boundaries.

I fundamentally believe we’re missing something when we talk about spacing and interleaving without talking about track design. @Kris_Boulton’s Substack is an excellent resource for learning about such blind spots. This is a case of cog sci providing principles without solutions.
