ASSESSMENTS The main questions to ask are: - What is the purpose of each assessment? - Does each assessment provide me with the data that I need in a reliable and valid way? Full post👇 www.learnwithlee.net/when-teachin...

CURRICULUM I don't think there's much conjecture over what needs to be taught in maths, but there's more debate around how it's presented, when different concepts are introduced & what aspects are prioritised. Full post👇 www.learnwithlee.net/when-teachin...

PROBLEM-SOLVING The debate isn't about whether or not we want our students to be engaging with problem-solving activities or rich tasks. The issue is when these tasks are presented to students. Full post👇 www.learnwithlee.net/when-teachin...

NEW CONTENT The hierarchical nature of mathematics means that if students don't have the pre-requisite knowledge, then the most effective & efficient way for them to gain it is by the teacher teaching it to them. Full post👇 www.learnwithlee.net/when-teachin...

S02E22 - Dr. Leslie Laud - Implementation Science Meets Writing Instruction: ThinkSRSD's Journey to Scalability and Impact - Learning with Mr. Lee
In this episode, Brendan Lee speaks with Dr. Leslie Laud. She is the founding Director of ThinkSRSD, a writing program built upon Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD). The discussion covers ThinkSRSD's key strategies, including mnemonics and how to apply them across different grade levels and writing genres. Furthermore, Dr. Laud addresses implementation challenges and provides advice for teachers, emphasising a gradual release of responsibility, the significance of teacher collaboration and the need for professional development that respects teachers' unique contexts.

NEW EPISODE I speak with @leslielaud.bsky.social the founding Director of ThinkSRSD, a writing program built upon Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD). I first came across SRSD a few years ago and have been puzzled as to why it is not more widely known and used, given its strong evidence-base.
