In contrast to the 'fool's gold' that's often dished up as teacher training, @nsachdeva.bsky.social and Jim Hewitt offer us pure gold for sifting through the advertorials.

He will be discussing the research behind the science of learning, the key factors driving the decline of student engagement and motivation, and the lack of positive results being yielded from 'progressive' math teaching methods.

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

Schemas, Chunking and Working Memory - kirschner-ED How do we manage to process and retain complex or lengthy informationβ€”such as sentences, problem-solving steps, or visual configurationsβ€”when our WM capacity is so limited?

Schemas, Chunking and Working Memory

Nice blog by Paul Kirschner on how chunking and schemas help us overcome the severe limitations of working memory by organizing information into meaningful, structured units that draw on prior knowledge.
