Learning to read is a highly complex process effective teachers understand. A great article to read and discuss in professional learning opportunities.

[Dylan Wiliam @dylanwiliam]

Excellent article from @DTWillingham on teaching reading comprehension, and in particular, why teaching reading comprehension strategies is useful, but not enough: https://t.co/MimNIM1ATV

@dylanwiliam @SecEd_Education As the NZC is refreshed, the need for educators to engage in how to equip our students with critical thinking and ability to communicate with clarity has never been more urgent. Start the conversations about what is the purpose of school in light of speed of development of AI.

[Janet McCarroll @janetmccarroll]

@EvaluationAssoc Warmest congratulations Jacqui on your fantastic achievement!

[Janet McCarroll @janetmccarroll]

Enjoyed the discussion, highly relevant in our current educational landscape.

[The Education Hub @educationhubnz]

The recording of last night's webinar with @ProfCoe is now available. It was such a wonderful discussion traversing the role that evidence, the principles of quality teaching, and what we do (and do not) know about effective school leadership.

@Hood_Nina's latest insight article identifies the timely opportunity we have in Aoteoroa as we provide feedback to inform the NZC Refresh that knowledge matters. Engaging students in a broad curriculum is vital.

[The Education Hub @educationhubnz]

@Hood_Nina's latest insight article is inspired by a recently released study from the US exploring the significant impact the Core Knowledge curriculum has on students' reading achievement and what these findings mean for New Zealand education.

The rate at which ChatGPT is improving its performance on achievement tests is really rather remarkable: https://t.co/oRUyM3wWlK (pdf)

In my latest @educationhubnz insight article I explore why it's often only when we try out new approaches in practice and see their impact on students that we begin to change our beliefs and understanding.

The hugely different opportunities to learn students receive at different schools across NZ concern me deeply. Read more about the role the curriculum plays in this in a @nzherald article published today.

My musings on National's 'back to basics' ed policy became a meditation on why I’m not convinced organising students into discrete year levels, based on time rather than progress, fits with what the research tells us about how students learn and develop.
