    A clever application of research implemented by . To reduce cognitive load while someone is learning a new concept, gradually “fade” steps of a solution out and let the learner complete progressively more each time.

    This is an interesting finding, but let's not get all silver-bullet about it. Education has seen a million "This One Simple Trick"-style innovations based on single studies. Nearly all of them fail when they're scaled up.

    A vital piece. "If you heard about a country populated by two major races or ethnicities or religions, and they talked about each other the way today’s Americans talk about the opposing political tribe, you’d be very, very concerned about that country."

    Fascinating example both of animal cognitive testing and evolutionary tradeoffs.

    Nicky Case is an inspiration and one of the sharpest minds around online education. This decade in review piece is a fascinating look at what it took to get there.

  9. "Plucker said the data don’t bear out the notion that bright kids will take care of themselves. He also believes that setting the bar at minimum standards does a disservice to all students." Great article from for

  10. I was one of the 40% in my first shot at college. Nobody from the school reached out when I left. Nobody noticed. Nobody cared. I just slipped away into the night and an algorithm assigned my scholarship elsewhere. The system is a faceless, blind machine.

  11. Great message. I disagree passionately with many educators, but all I’ve met genuinely want to help. The fight in education is a fight against systems, not against villains. Merry Christmas!

    I am coming to a very disturbing realization. That the edifice of academia is built on publication, and publication is built upon peer review. And peer review is something we academics are not trained to do, is mostly a thankless job, and essentially no research on it.

  13. “Instead of buying in to the irresponsible message that we all have exactly the same potential, educators might do well to embrace the diversity of human skills and ability and seek to design educational environments that allow individuals to express who they are.” Well put.

  14. For those looking to make college admissions more fair, removing the hardest-to-game tool is not the answer.

  15. The bright side of movements like this: If prestigious schools reject test scores, other thoughtful schools can fill the market niche and serve smart kids from all backgrounds who lack the over-the-top resumes needed if you drop test scores.

    Another good reminder that skills don't transfer much, so when teaching something, be specific. Teaching "critical thinking" only works if students have a base of direct subject knowledge to draw from.

    Deliberate practice sometimes takes the form of Schrödinger’s theory: something counts as both deliberate practice and not, until it’s time to make a point with it.

    Excellent article: After learning math as an adult, the author describes why memorization and repetition are more important to learning than we assume.

  20. As points out, straight A’s aren’t necessarily an indicator of a student’s success. Many A students simply aren’t being challenged enough to fail and to learn. Aim for ~85% success if you want adequate challenge.
