Phenomenal. High points Damaris and Hymn of the Haar. New album work sounds very good. Technical hitches a bit annoying.

I think it's strange that local actions in Eastleigh are postponed for a year because of "devolution and local government reorganisation".

How useful is it to compare education systems around the world?
Crude caricatures of how education works in different countries can be unhelpful, writes Christian Bokhove, who says we need a more nuanced approach

🌍 ‘International comparisons can only really be a starting point of discussions…’ @cbokhove.bsky.social says learning from other countries' education systems has to involve seeing what’s really happening inside their classrooms

I've always been surprised that school inspection in England is so visible. In my opinion, you should only really notice them locally when a school 'falls through the bottom' one way or another (this does sometimes create local media attention).

Teachers who want to be truly ‘evidence-informed’ need to treat all research equally, avoiding bias in favour of the studies that they like, says @cbokhove.bsky.social
tes.com
Are your biases getting in the way of engaging with education research?
Many describe themselves as evidence-informed educators, says Christian Bokhove, but apply different standards to the findings they actually like

On twitter I always reacted to what I saw on my timeline, and mainly when I felt I had something to contribute. So, I would not often be the 51st to say learning styles sucked. But I would be someone who would be critical about hyperbole re the 'science of learning'.

Christian Bokhove @cbokhove.bsky.social · 24/01/2025
I remember when asking Dweck about her mindset theory invited comments that you could hardly get an objective view from someone who was so invested in the theory. So, why would we only ask a view on the 'science of learning' from the most invested? It reeks of new gatekeeping.

Looking on Facebook, linkedin, X, BlueSky... Many of them have a lot of signalling of being 'evidence-informed' through hyperbole and misrepresentation of evidence. Often it goes something like the diagram...

The reason why the values for 'load' are so notable is that the theory itself argued biologically primary knowledge is 'easy' to acquire (low load) and biologically secondary is 'hard' to acquire (high load). They did that here: statistical difference but is the binary category really distinctive?

Christian Bokhove @cbokhove.bsky.social · 04/01/2025
This is what I expected to have been studied much more, before whole theories put all their money on the distinction -> Primary vs. secondary knowledge contents in reasoning: Motivated and efficient vs. overburdened - www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Primary vs. secondary knowledge contents in reasoning: Motivated and efficient vs. overburdened
Primary knowledge is the knowledge for which our cognitive architecture has evolved so that we acquire it quickly and effortlessly. We are intrinsical…

My talks about 'this is the new myth' tried to warn against creation of new myths while combatting myths. One of the most pervasive 'new' myths is the idea that *only* success leads to motivation. Unf it has traction in popular edubooks. The relationship between success&motivation is bidirectional.

Almost every time I see education pieces correcting other pieces for not being 'evidence-informed', I think they demonstrate limited, and one-sided evidence.

If countries, schools, universities do well in rankings they love to showcase it. If it inspires you to do better, fine,but as a way to improve an education system they aren't very useful, as we can't all be in the top decile....
