My new car turns the volume down when you put car in reverse so you can see better. Makes total sense to me. 😂

Such a fun dissertation defense today. Congratulations to Dr. Marr & her amazing mentor, Ben Solomon.

Oh how I loved seeing these beautiful souls in ND. Filled my cup. Three of us were original RTI Action Network advisors for NCLD 18 yrs ago in Chicago.

Helping my Tulane kid move this weekend. Great food. Some chaos. Lots of summer heat. And conversations all day long. All the good stuff.

Shout out to professors who know the names of their undergrad students & buy them doughnuts & coffee when they run into them in the doughnut shop. ♥️

I am really excited to release this new episode tomorrow with researcher Brian Poncy! It's incredible!

I get a lot of emails about my podcast, and this might be my favourite comment so far. "You and your guests have inspired me to go back to learn more math...you and your guests make math seem fun, challenging, and doable if you put your mind to it."

here's a primer on math assessment in MTSS (spoiler alert- there's not ORF equivalent). We use mastery measurement CBM. Here's how to do it. Too much to tweet, but we know a lot about how to measure in math. springmath.org/resources#5588…

Please meet the very best boy ever, Emmett VanDerHeyden, fostered all summer til today when we became his.

I loved loved loved this study. Bravo Robin S. Codding Katie Maki & Zaslofsky & Woods. Well-done.

So glad this paper is finally online! We found no differences in math anxiety across overt and covert timing conditions but students reported higher math anxiety on complex problems compared to simple problems.

Thanks for having me on your podcast Kate Winn. When teachers understand the science of instruction they can engineer their instructional environments for better success in reading and math.

Excellent thoughtful rigorous research from Katie Maki & Robin S. Codding & Anne Zaslofsky & Woods.

1 silver lining is the many brilliant people (many now friends) I found in the US and Canada who have been exposing inequitable parts of K-12 math ed for yrs. Thanks Anna Stokke Amanda VanDerHeyden 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤 Tom Loveless, SF parents & others for your work 1/3

🚗 Season 3 wraps up with a jam-packed episode featuring Amanda VanDerHeyden. Kate and Amanda have a wide-ranging conversation about the science of learning and human behaviour - how do children learn new things? From the instructional hierarchy to incremental rehearsal, don't miss

"When someone promotes an idea that lacks scientific coherence & merit & when it is systematically disproven again & again I believe [they] have a moral obligation as a scientist, as a thought leader to look at that and say, am I doing more harm than good?" Amanda VanDerHeyden on math

It really is all the science of learning. Shout-outs to Matthew Burns Anna Stokke Robin S. Codding & Ben Solomon at SUNY

Excellent piece, Todd. Such a testament to the more pragmatic concerns of parents who want their children to gain the academic skills needed to think critically & thrive in life. Well-done.

My longest and possibly most important 🧵 to date. Educators and educational leaders need to hear Amanda VanDerHeyden discussing the science of learning on the latest episode IDA Ontario's Reading Road Trip. Here are some highlights - which quote resonates with you most?
