The tone we use towards our students matters, and yet it's not always obvious what particular tone we should set. Listen as we discuss the importance of tone and how to set the right one.

😱 That's me!
ALT ”One of my tips of the day for my students is simply the word ‘yet.’ If you don't feel like you're good at something, just add the word ‘yet’ to it to show that where you are is not permanent. I'm not good at math yet. I'm not good at cooking yet. It shows that these things are temporary and not a permanent feature. Even a specific math concept: I don't understand long division, yet.” —Howie Hua, Math Lecturer

ALT “When I was a new teacher, everyone was like, ‘Give students autonomy! They’ll love it and be motivated!’ What no one mentioned was that autonomy only builds motivation when students have a sense of self-efficacy first, requiring evidence to believe success is possible.” —Tyler Rablin, Teacher

It’s important to remember that as a thought process, metacognition cannot be separated from cognition.

Giving feedback is very easy and something we teachers do all day. But, giving effective feedback is an art form that takes practice & technique. This piece by Nina offers 3 practical suggestions that we can start next week.

Striking the right tone can be tricky. We don't want to be too strict, but we also can't be too lenient either. This was a great discussion about finding just the right tone.

This was a great discussion on the importance of tone in the classroom. We are all aware of how important it is; sometimes, it's just a matter of focusing on the right things.

We can spend hundreds of dollars designing our classroom & hours preparing the best lessons, but if our tone is not well-received, then it may all be for naught. Great discussion on tone here.

📣 Finding the right tone of voice as a teacher is hard. Sound too strict, and students will rebel. Go too easy, and they’ll test the boundaries of what they can get away with. Here's what the research says to try:

If your reading intervention is computer led you are in fact NOT providing evidence based intervention.

As Joe Torgesen said, computerized instruction can supplement teacher-led instruction, but never replace it! ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…

I want to print and laminate this so I can post it in my classroom. It is so good and such a great visual of #GrowthMindset

"The thing that surprised me most about my teacher preparation program was that we never talked about how kids learn."
In most universities, cognitive science & teacher education are two separate, siloed departments that rarely overlap in course content.
