💚 Teaching One-Pagers Volume 2 is out TODAY—exactly one year after the first. Book 2 has been another labour of love, distilling edu-research and important ideas into practical, visual summaries for busy teachers. Huge thanks to everyone who’s supported my work—you are the driving force behind this series! 📘📗

This week’s ⚗️DistillED kicks off a new mini-series: Poor Proxies for Learning — six posts on the things that look like learning on the surface but don’t necessarily lead to lasting understanding. Proxy #1: ‘The Busy Trap’ is when students are active, producing lots of work, and staying “busy” — and we take this as evidence of learning. But activity ≠ learning. As Rob Coe reminds us, what we see in the moment can be a poor proxy for what’s actually learned. 📘 Includes access to this NEW Poor Proxies for Learning Playbook. 50+ pages outlining each proxy and evidence-informed strategies to overcome them. newsletter.jamieleeclark.com/p/poor-proxies…

⚠️ POOR PROXIES FOR LEARNING! A new 6-part ⚗️DistillED series kicks off this week. Based on Professor Rob Coe's research, this series examines the classroom signals that look like evidence of learning — but don't guarantee it: busy students, engaged students, calm rooms, feedback given, a few hands up with the right answer. 📘 To go alongside the series I've put together this NEW Poor Proxies for Learning Playbook — a printed booklet bringing all six chapters together in one place. Six proxies. Six editions. Subscribe for free to stay updated: 👉 newsletter.jamieleeclark.com

🔒 SECURING ATTENTION! Students remember what they attend to.

📣 ACTIVATING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE! The research is clear… New learning doesn’t stick unless it has something to attach to. In the latest edition of ⚗️DistillED, I explore what activating prior knowledge looks like in practice — and why getting it right leads to more meaningful learning. Inspired by the work of the amazing @SCottinghatt newsletter.jamieleeclark.com/p/activating-p…
