  1. Belonging as the Foundation: Where Brain Science Meets Identity in the Classroom [EP 20]

    JAN 6

    Belonging as the Foundation: Where Brain Science Meets Identity in the Classroom [EP 20]

    Today we talk about belonging as a foundational element in the classroom with colleague and mentor, Lorraine Martinez Haley. Fifteen years ago 'belonging' wasn't a common buzzword among educators, so today we discuss the connection between the science of teaching and learning and the science of diversity, equity, and belonging. We ask how we as teachers can stay in this space rather than let the concept of belonging become a fad. We also talk about why belonging is important for both students and educators and how teachers can create space for their colleagues and students to show up as they need to. Listen to this episode to learn about the concept of Belonging 2.0, sharing authority in the classroom space, and how teachers can manage their power of choice and privilege as educators.  SUBSCRIBE TO THINK DIFFERENTLY & DEEPLY ON iTUNES/APPLE PODCASTS: https://apple.co/3JCpK1u And to support our work, please leave us a 5-star review with your feedback on iTunes/Apple Podcasts.

    The Goldilocks Map: Finding the Right Balance in Research-Informed Teaching featuring Andrew C. Watson [EP19]

    This interview with Andrew Watson was recorded during the second USA Festival of Education. Andrew is what I call a positive skeptic. In this episode, we discuss the differences between the brain and the mind and debate the importance of studying both. We also offer tips for analyzing educational research. Listen to Andrew's educational journey and how it led him to teach English and eventually author books on topics like finding a balance in research-informed teaching.

    Just Tell Them: A Journey into Explicit Teaching featuring Zach Groshell [EP18]

    Zach Groshell is good gatekeeper of information, so we are very lucky today to be able to pick his brain about his educational passions, explicit teaching and direct instruction. In this episode, we define these two teaching styles, discuss the research behind them, and explain why explicit teaching is so rare. We also talk about the importance of background knowledge and offer tips for creating engaging moments between teachers. Listen to this episode to learn what makes good research and which teaching tools are non-negotiable.

    From Rereading to Retrieval: How Psychology Changed My View of Studying featuring Eva Shultis [EP16]

    If all teachers knew the science behind neuroplasticity and learning we would be better educators. Today I talk with Eva Shultis, who has the unique position of Associate Director for Research and Product Development for CTTL, about our role as stewards of neuroplasticity as teachers and educators.  In this episode, we talk about mind-brain education, how the CTTl incorporates art into their model, and how stress affects learning outcomes.  Listen in to better understand the importance of neuroplasticity and its relevance for educators.  SUBSCRIBE TO THINK DIFFERENTLY & DEEPLY ON iTUNES/APPLE PODCASTS: https://apple.co/3JCpK1u And to support our work, please leave us a 5-star review with your feedback on iTunes/Apple Podcasts.

    Chasing Sleep featuring Sarah Schwartz [EP13]

    As we approach the first major projects and exams of the school year, there's one research-informed success strategy that students and teachers alike tend to downplay - getting a full night's sleep. In the latest episode of the Think Differently and Deeply Podcast, we get some insight on the importance of sleep from a recent high school graduate, Sarah Schwartz, who wrote about the impact of sleep on her own life from a research-informed perspective for Volume 4 of Think Differently and Deeply.
