Noise is a secret destroyer of productivity. It is secret because it impacts cognition, not effort, so we don’t notice, but a 10db noise increase (from a dishwasher to a vacuum) lowers productivity by 5%. Noise is also greater in poorer neighborhoods... joshuatdean.com/wp-content/upl…

When you give students the "right" task difficulty in instruction, engagement & completion goes up. When math ed trainers act like an interesting task is what accounts for engagement, they are missing a really important ingredient which is child proficiency. Gickling & Armstrong
