I did not understand how/why Dehaene conflated 'whole word' and 'whole language' in his book 'Reading in the Brain'. It made me wonder about his knowledge of literacy teaching practices.

Monitoring by who? What do most teachers think about using technology to 'assess learning real time'? Please provides examples of good practice, in your view.

"Research is necessary but not sufficient. As teachers, we need to be telling a different story about the work that we do and the positive impact we have on children and society." Great article, Rae.

Interesting! Would be great to know, apart from cultural events, how towns manage themselves, having just returned from France and seeing (again) those tiny villages with their own mairies. What budgets for those facilities/flowers? Will English councils ever have budgets again?!

Hi Susannah. You must have come across this on many occasions. As far as I know, I have not met people promoting project-based learning as a solution in low income/low resource education contexts.

Just around the corner from us. Ahmed Moustafa would often show visitors around himself, and explain where his split cube idea came from.

Halloween (1979?) Even wrote to the cinema (maybe the director?!) to complain. The arrogance of being 20. Still, a rubbish film.

New Blog Post: This is about what happens when we get primary children to write what they 'actually', 'really', think about things, rather than letting them just second-guess our implicit expectations of their writing.

Ironic: the dismissal of 'discover or construct knowledge' links to an article that (anonymously written) says, 'Contrary to criticisms by some (conservative/traditional) educators, constructivism does not dismiss the active role of the teacher or the value of expert knowledge.'

Seems to be predicated also on the idea that cognitive science equates to a narrow cogsci sub domain of ‘memory’
