For anyone who interacted with #HowLearningHappensInFeb and you don't have the 1st edition, or liked it so much you want even more refined content check out the 2nd edition.
The 2nd edition of 'How Learning Happens' is finally out! and @P_A_Kirschner and I are very excited to share it.
Here's a brief preview of what's new ⬇️ 🧵
➡️ Firstly, we felt that the missing elements in the first part of the 1st edition all fell within the broader category of memory and specifically how it underpins, foregrounds, and interacts with learning so we added a new section featuring 5 seminal works and why educators should know about them.
➡️There is a new foreward by John Sweller.
➡️ We also added a second closing chapter in which, after discussing the ten deadly sins of education (the original concluding chapter), we discuss the ways in which seminal research can become distorted into dysfunctional implementations of its original form, what Brown and Campione christened “Lethal Mutations”.
➡️ Finally we’ve updated, checked, and rechecked the links and QR‑codes, added some links to new additional materials, and corrected mistakes that we and others found in the original book.
@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 29 - Last Day! "The Ten Deadly Sins in Education"
A couple of favourites:
"With Google, knowledge is no longer important" and "School kills creativity".
No to both.
So much learning about learning this month - excellent book!

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 28: "Proponents of multimedia instruction seem to forget that the instructor is actually the most interactive medium & an intelligent one as well."
Really trying to take the advice of less writing on slides: concise visual info + my audio commentary

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 26 "The field of education is rife w myths which are undermining the learning of our children."
Learning styles: "It's actually the subject matter & learning goal that should determine how one teaches & not a preference or non-existent learning style"

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 25: "A community of practice should produce a set of artefacts such as documents, stories, tools, websites, etc., which will remain practically useful as the community grows & evolves"

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 24: Cognitive apprenticeship
Same 4 steps as traditional apprenticeship: modelling, scaffolding, fading & coaching
As teachers we need to make the thinking involved in abstract tasks visible for students, then they practise under our supervision.

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 23: Having students apply learning (e.g., math, vocab) in authentic, real-life contexts is good but can get extreme. "Don't forget to present students w the necessary supportive & procedural info & knowledge needed to cary out those tasks."

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 22: Learning depends on prior knowledge. "When teaching...be as explicit as possible, otherwise you are just widening the gap btwn students who have knowledge & those who don't."
Modelling tip: teacher/peer breaking task down step by step as exemplar

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 21: Learning techniques that really work
Less effective techniques include highlighting & rereading (my former studying go-to)
More effective techniques include practice testing & distributive practice (what I try to do now)
#HowLearningHappensInFeb
A good book for more:
@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 20: Feedback
“It’s impossible to be excellent if you don’t know what excellent looks like.” (I don’t think this is just a school thing…)
So many 🔥 takeaways - see photo

@MrTaylorMaths2 @P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick Ch 19: "It's not the giving of feedback per se but rather the type of feedback given, possibly combined with the way it's given."
*assessment FOR learning (formative "hugely powerful")
*next steps to meet goal, close gap
*interaction btwn teacher/student
