Vygotsky's 'Zone of Proximal Development' is perhaps the most misunderstood idea in education. It was never a teaching method but a metaphor for how teaching can pull thinking upward, from the everyday to the scientific. ⬇️ 🧵

4/5 Holland went away with a narrow 1-0 victory. They won every match in the campaign apart from the 2-2 draw with Northern Ireland in Rotterdam. They only conceded 3 goals in the campaign - one against Iceland & the 2 against Northern Ireland.

Today, we spent class time reviewing for the upcoming exam. Some students asked if we’d be playing Kahoot or Blooket. I told them we wouldn’t be doing that. This is what we did instead. ⬇️

@jaenicc Disagree. Galicia and Asturias are TERRIBLE. Worst food, people are super mean, everything is super flat and there's nothing to do or see. If you are considering going there or have a flight booked I highly recommend cancelling. For your own good, it's actually terrible.

This is by far the most underrated region in Europe. Best gastronomy on the continent. lush forests and mountains. Few tourists.

This should be an interesting conference on disciplinary literacy, based on the The British Academic Written English Secondary School (BAWESS) project. It is investigating the role of language in representing knowledge in different disciplines. bath.ac.uk/events/second-…

Increasingly convinced the incessant claim that a humanities education is about "critical thinking"—rather than content mastery—is a scam designed to justify the humanities in "skill-building" terms that are legible within the university's new role as a credentialing bureaucracy.

The most common teaching mistakes are things like: presenting too much not enough practice not gathering responses moving on too quickly not securing attention no examples I’m struck by how much attention we devote in education to stuff that distracts from these fundamentals.

We're often asked how long it takes to assess a set of essays using Comparative Judgement. Here is a comparison. TRAD MARKING: If it takes 10 minutes to mark an essay, it will take 5 hours to mark a class of 30. HUMAN CJ: 2.5 hours HUMAN & AI CJ: 15 minutes 95% time saving!! help.nomoremarking.com/en/article/how…
