In the busy classroom, remembering to apply new practice from pedagogical training can feel hard and overwhelming. Teaching WalkThrus turn teaching techniques into easy to follow, 5 step visual guides. Meaning better teaching, step by step. @teacherhead @olicav @MattTeachCoach

“Why can’t they remember it?” Maybe their working memory was overloaded. Learn how to design teaching that reduces strain and boosts recall. innerdrive.co.uk/blog/principle…

Why does a negative times a negative equal a positive?

Hard-hitting article by the amazing Barbara Oakley. "Our brains need practice & memorization to move facts & skills into long-term memory, freeing up mental space for genuine problem-solving...a student cannot reason deeply about mathematics w/o mult'n facts and algebraic methods made automatic through practice" seattletimes.com/opinion/wa-mat…

“Because, but, so” works not because it’s cute but because it aligns with how memory and understanding actually form. Retrieval. Elaboration. Generation. The science behind these 3 small words and how I use it in the wild to make expert thinking accessible. 🔗👇
