So Paul A. Kirschner and I just had a “bucket list conversation” with the legend that is John Dunlosky about spacing and retrieval and how to make it work. We’re writing a chapter on the topic and I’m so excited to work on it and share it with everyone.

Great opportunity here—researchED is a terrific conference to attend AND to speak at! Consider applying and sharing what you know! The next one is in Denver this September, and it should be fantastic.

If you’re new to teaching next year, spend the summer time they give you practicing teaching with a peer or an empty room and familiarizing yourself with the curriculum, rather than on decorating your room on your own dime. You’re a teacher, not an interior designer.

If you missed the free webinar I put on with Blake Harvard (Blake Harvard) about attention and teacher explanations, the recording is now available: educationrickshaw.com/2025/06/16/max…

🫵 WE WANT YOU 🫵 You have a message to share with teachers that is: * interesting * useful * important, and * supported by research? researchED US and Denver Museum want YOU to apply for our 9/13 conference in Denver! The deadline is July 15: bit.ly/3HzcwF7
