Is it Engaging, Effective, or Brain-Based?
Educators constantly seek ways to enhance teaching and support students' learning. What if the key to unlocking effective science education may lie in understanding how the brain learns and aligning our teaching strategies accordingly?
Can you imagine an education system without a research-practice gap?
Explore unconventional solutions like practice-based evidence, embedded researchers, and continuous feedback loops that could transform education into an integrated, responsive, and constantly improving system.
The efficacy of a message: empathy, interdependence, ingenuity, or prevention?
Here, we break down the research study results related to how framing your work impacts how others receive it.
Do you take notes 📝, or do you build knowledge? 🧠
Discover the power of zettelkasten - a note-taking system to support knowledge building. Learn how to cross-pollinate your ideas systematically.
Intersectionality in psychology
A summary of the state of intersectional research in psychology.
Heterogeneous effects in education
A literature synthesis on approaches to capture heterogeneous effects (or intersectionality) in education and crucial considerations.
Framing for Impact
Drs. Rosa and Corrales discuss how framing impacts reforms in science education. How our work is framed strongly influences how it is received.
Can empathy hurt reform?
While exploring the idea of "framing" research related to equity, I came across an interesting perspective on how empathy impacts my work.
