@DanielBorowsk13 @joschafalck cool, schauen wir uns an 👍

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@Herr_Ka_Punkt @joschafalck Sehr gute Idee! Jetzt brauchen wir nur noch einen Herausgeber oder eine Herausgeberin 😇

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl @mpershan Again, it's not about a single paper

You're looking for a Nature publication and missing the forest for the trees 😇

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl @mpershan You can read through all of his papers 😇

BTC is about the accumulated insights rather than one or few definitive papers

Peter's work spans years, and BTC distills key findings into actionable steps for teachers

@HardySeifert @DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl @mpershan Wow, großartiger inhaltlicher Beitrag! 👏

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

The aim of Building Thinking Classrooms is not to answer every research question

Of course, you could do more research

It's *based on research,* but it's not a PhD thesis that cites references for every statement and every number

Because here's the problem: no one other than academics reads them

If you write a popular book, you need to make it generally accessible

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl @mpershan "I've probably known Peter for 20 years...about as long as I've been in Canada. A simple google scholar search (https://t.co/WyTAGZQdp2) will turn up lots of the research evidence which is 'distilled' in the BTC book."

#reviewer2 up at 3am trying to find that one citation that will help to destroy and reject the manuscript.

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl For what it’s worth it, other scientific fields, such as computer science and deep learning, publish predominantly at conferences

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl You *can* or you *should* doesn’t mean you have to ☺️

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl It's a different kind of research

And yes, it is documented in peer-reviewed (book and conference) publications

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl You're looking for a different kind of research

Peter isn't doing randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies 😅

As described in the introduction of the book, his approach is more like field research, going into classrooms, observing students

Yes, it's a great article because it analyzes the sources of the book objectively

– it doesn't say there's no evidence

It spurs a debate about how much evidence there is (which is a fair debate to have!)

Did you read the comments by SK?

Too long; didn't read:

"BTC is not a research text. It is a popular text, meant for a popular audience."

It's based on research by Peter, but it doesn't claim to be a scientific publication

– it's not a PhD thesis 😇

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl No, that's not a bijective relation

Solid research should be published in journals – agree

But that doesn't imply research published outside of journals isn't solid

That is a false logical conclusion

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl Agree.

But it doesn't mean book and conference publications aren't peer-reviewed or ain't research 😇

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl "no paper => no research" as a claim is wrong

Just because your research ain't published in an academic paper doesn't mean it ain't research 😇

And, by the way, book and conference publications are peer-reviewed too

[Visual Ink Publishing @VisualInkPub]

@DanielBorowsk13 @pgliljedahl You should try the chocolate cake and read the book

It's delicious 😇
