Drs. @nsachdeva.bsky.social & Jim Hewitt share about classic studies in Education, starting w/ working memory & cognitive load theory @ #RedTO25. I was just discussing this w/ @numcog.bsky.social over lunch. I wish all teachers learned about this in their BEd training! It changed my teaching so much

Dr. Ansari speaks, while a summary of his main points is on the slide behind him.

Great talk!

Dr. Ansari begins his presentation.

Listening to @numcog.bsky.social share about automaticity of math facts. I’m always intrigued by the parallels between math and literacy in both robust research findings and common pushback arguments.

“When weak research drives decisions, students pay.”

Dr. Jamie Metsala stands beside a screen, giving a keynote lecture under a massive stained glass window in a church at ResearchEd in Toronto.

At #redTO25, @j-metsala.bsky.social is delivering a great summary of the history of reading instruction and the alignment and misalignment with research along the way.

It’s a first for me too, but it’s beautiful in here! I’m looking forward to meeting you in person at some point today!

This webinar, with @mrzachg.bsky.social and @blakeharvard.bsky.social is sure to be great! And it’s free!

So sorry to hear, Nadine. This is absolutely devastating. Thanks for sharing updates like this. It’s important that those who are not currently part of the school to have an understanding of the very real implications. I wish you much strength and wisdom as you navigate the question of “now what.”

Moment of appreciation for the bull bison alt text. 😂

Congratulations, Darren! It sounds like the beginning of a lovely new adventure.

Oh, Nadine, I'm so sorry that this is your present reality. I can't imagine how utterly devastating all of this must be.
