Some really interesting perspectives on choosing ‘read-alikes’ and not relying on texts that we’ve always used or are more familiar to us. Using the familiar to reinvigorate our choices and supplementing our comfort texts to build knowledge 🙌🏻🥰 @clarafiorentini.bsky.social #edchatie

Time for my regular post for new writers about picture books. You do NOT need illustrations to submit a picture book text to an agent or publisher. Please do not pay anyone to create illustrations for you. It’s not necessary, you just need the text.

Does research suggest that structured literacy is more effective than balanced literacy? I’ve spent a long time trying to answer this question, here are my current thoughts: www.teachingbyscience.com/systematic-p...

What do we need to bear in mind as we move forward with a new Primary School Curriculum? In a new article for the Irish Teachers' Journal, @paulalehane.bsky.social and I highlight key points from two research reports we published last year. www.into.ie/app/uploads/... #edchatie #edusky /1

Abstract text: Intensive debate surrounds integration, pedagogy, and assessment in educational research.
While these fundamental concepts have regularly been explored individually, they have rarely
been considered in tandem with each other. Research (Burke & Lehane, 2023a, 2023b) to support
the redevelopment of the Primary School Curriculum has highlighted a number of critical
issues for their design and enactment, both individually and in concert. In this article, we chart
the affordances and challenges of curriculum integration, highlighting principles that might
inform its curricular and classroom implementation. The manifold perspectives on pedagogy
are synthesised to highlight convergence and contradiction in the available literature. The
crucial role of assessment in sustaining ongoing learning is outlined. In synthesising the
literature from these areas, the article looks back and projects forwards, identifying meaningful
innovations, potential issues and key implications for the coming period of curriculum reform.

Great to attend the launch of the DCU Centre for Literacy Research, Policy & Practice this evening. The marvellous turnout on a cold Tuesday evening is a reflection of the great interest and commitment to literacy research in Ireland 👏 @dcuioe.bsky.social @patjburke.bsky.social
