"We would never hand a child a flute and ask them to discover how to play before teaching notes and scales. Nor would we start swim lessons in the deep end. Yet in math, we often reverse this sequence." theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

@scottadamson11 @MmeLockhartLDS @amandavande1 Good questions sometimes come from people who already know the answers. No need to attend if you have informers.

@MmeLockhartLDS @amandavande1 @researchEDCan How many senior education officials from the Dept. of Ed. N.S. and from the Regional Centres of Education were in attendance to hear some of the speakers? Was the Minister of Ed.,Maguire, in attendance; the deputy Min. of Ed.? (Here's my guess- none of the above).👨‍🎓Am I wrong?

🔥 Amanda VanDerHeyden lit it up at Research ED Atlantic this past weekend! 🔥 Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable about how learning happens, she is passionate, and full of drive to make a difference for all learners. Thank you @amandavande1 and @researchEDCan!
