Despite overwhelming evidence debunking the ‘learning styles myth’ it seems to be popular as ever. Reblogged here is a post by Nicholas Meier who argues that, instead of serving students lessons based on their personal learning modality, it is far more effective to use all three learning modalities, visual, auditory and kinesthetic in our lessons.

According to this post by Tom Bennett (author of Teacher Proof and director of ResearchED) we may view evidence-based education as just another edu-myth, along with learning styles, myths about group learning and class size etc.

Originally posted on Carl Hendrick:
I’ve long thought that one of the weakest proxy indicators of effective learning is engagement, and yet it’s a term persistently used by school leaders (and some researchers) as one of the most important measures of quality. In fact many of the things we’ve traditionally associated with effective teachers may not be indicative…
Growth mindset: It’s not magic

Originally posted on Evidence into Practice:
One of the barriers to opportunities afforded by education is the mindset of our students. There’s a considerable body of evidence supporting the view that implicit theories of intellect can undermine or improve student motivation in school. Whether the student directs their efforts trying not to look ‘dumb’ or…
Rise against the people behind the machine, een kijk op Tegenlicht over Silicon Valley
28 januari 2015 0 Reacties
Even zitten twijfelen of ik deze post hier ook zou plaatsen, maar omdat de discussie een belangrijke link met een invloed heeft op onderwijs doe ik het toch. De voorbije dagen heb ik lopen piekeren over de Cybertopia-documentaire van Tegenlicht (die je hier kan bekijken). Piekeren is misschien niet het juiste woord, eerder nadenken over het komt […]

Originally posted on Networkonnet:
The egregious errors that beset John Hattie’s research are so pervasive as to prove difficult to encompass and thus lay bare – but various insights local and international are at last coming together to achieve just that. This posting argues that this coming together will reveal there is nothing about Hattie’s…
Questioning Gagné and Bloom’s Relevance
14 november 2014 0 Reacties
This post by Christy Tucker, reblogged here, points out some of the problems I have also had with Bloom’s taxonomy and similar recipes (e.g., Gagné’s). We cannot blame good old Bloom for the abuse of his model, but it’s good to see someone emphasizing the lack of research support behind his theory. It’s fine, I […]
