Insightful! I especially love the caution about "Confusing learning theory and neuroscience with teaching practice". Some of this reminds me of the amazing talk by Dylan Wiliam - teaching is not a research-based profession... "Classrooms are just too complicated for research ever to tell teachers what to do"
Some interesting thoughts and ideas. I really find this territory quite intriguing, that is, the space between research processes and findings and how these might be implemented within specific - and complex - contexts such as classrooms.
Great post!
Thank you 😊

Thanks for reading Ben, and for the inspo to go and find that DW talk again!

I love this. I wish I felt more optimistic about things improving in this space - but posts like this surely contribute. Thanks!
Thanks for reading Kylie. And yes, very frustrating to find a pathway through when there is so much posturing!
