1/3 The ed prof arguing declining math scores might be good isn’t an isolated problem.
Here’s a clip from my conversation w/ Sarah Powell responding to an NCSM statement suggesting education shouldn’t focus so much on efficacy--whether something works!! Full episode below⬇️

I was wrong.
This article explains the shift I made and why accuracy skyrocketed when I did.
Includes the full Essential Guide to Explicit Instruction in Mathematics.

Dr. Archer reminds us that great teaching is clear, concise,& consistent, & that exp. inst. helps all Ss thrive. I ❤️ her take on reframing cold calls to warm calls by shifting from putting Ss on the spot to inviting them into safe, supported participation https://t.co/X2t4fAlPdZ
@dperkinsed Thanks for clarifying. I’d love to read the article but only have access to the abstract. Are you able to share it with me? I believe I’m with you on EI being used in certain circumstances such as if its new learning or the student is struggling which is consistent with the IH
@dperkinsed I think one of the main differences described by these two approaches would be giving opportunity to discuss with a peer first, which could be particularly helpful for someone more anxious to speak.2/2
@dperkinsed Great point. My understanding is that cold calling has solid research support for increasing engagement, but that it works best in a safe and trusting context- reframing it as a warm call helps bring this to the forefront. 1/2
