Research found that highlighting passages, rereading notes, and underlining key sentences is among the least effective strategies for learning and studying. Among the most effective is having students generate questions about what they’re learning.

Think philosophically about what you want your grading practices to encourage and convey to students. Are your grades an accurate reflection of what a student knows? Do your grading practices align with your teaching philosophies? @edutopia edutopia.org/article/case-ag…
The Case Against Zeros in Grading

The Case Against Zeros in Grading

We had a cruddy class last period...kids had to be fussed at, everyone kinda tired, snappy and impatient with each other - so we spent the last 10 min doing “shoutouts.” Just a jr version of @MrChase’s High Grade Compliments. “I wanna give a shout out to ____, for ____.”

Dr. Helen Skelton (@DrHSkelton) contemplates the complexities of her #introversion. For instance: she's "afraid of being noticed and afraid of being overlooked." In this article, she focuses less on teaching introverts than on LEADING them by example. elementsoflearning.home.blog…

We want to help students improve their critical thinking. It would be especially great if we could help them think critically about sources of online information. Good news: we can. It turns out--as is so often the case--SPACING lessons helps. ow.ly/Cz9750xftuI
