The book features scientists @lkfazio.bsky.social @drcindynebel.bsky.social @stevencpan.bsky.social @veronicayan.bsky.social. They're teachers, too!
It isn't science-y at all. AND it's short: 10 chapters, only 10 pages each #EduSky

New book written by teachers for teachers (who happen to also be cognitive experts in learning)!

Another UK university drops Elsevier deal.
