🚨 NEW! When we rely primarily on raised hands for answers, we fail to check the understanding of the entire class. We merely confirm the knowledge of the most confident or competent students. This week’s ⚗️DistillED is the final part of the Poor Proxies for Learning series… Proxy 6 The Few vs. The Many. newsletter.jamieleeclark.com…

Poor Proxies #5: The Few vs. The Many Part 6 of 6 — Why a Few Correct Answers Don't Tell You What...

Discover why a few correct answers don't reveal whole-class learning. Explore the final poor proxy for learning with evidence-informed strategies to check understanding across your entire classroom.

Four years ago, I wouldn't have had a clue what this post meant. I don't know if it's a good thing or not that I now fully get it. 🤣

I would encourage those struggling with fuel costs and with sincere grievances to look through this man's social media accounts before platforming him or getting behind him as any sort of spokesperson.

How do we navigate the contradictions in teacher professional learning? Join us this Thursday at the @IPDA_Ireland Journal Club as we dive into research by Prof. Geraldine Mooney Simmie. It's not a lecture, it's a dialogue. Details & Open Access paper: lnkd.in/dTpAYjuN

This Sunday (Jan 18th) is the last chance to submit your abstract for #IPDA2026. It’s not just about research; it’s about how we map policy into practice and make a difference. If you're working on something that pushes the frontiers of your field, get that abstract in!
IPDA International@ipda_prof_learnJan 12
This week is your last chance to submit an abstract for the IPDA 2026 International Conference. Don't miss out on what promises to be a fantastic couple of days in Dublin, the first time our conference has been held there. ipda.org.uk/ipda-internation…

As I’ve said before, I rarely agree with Jennifer Horgan when it comes to many aspects of education in Ireland but this article of hers is insightful and well worth reading. Many female teachers working in Irish schools will recognise the issues she highlights here. #edchatie

Jennifer Horgan: I’m not imagining it — it’s getting harder to teach a certain type of boy

Plans to train teachers to identify misogyny ignore where the problem really lies — and place yet another burden on schools
