    Barriers to and Acceptance of Technology in Education

    Research Based Learning Techniques - with a twist

    Send us a text This is a special episode of The Learning Mindset - because this is an experiment. In this episode, I used AnswerThis - a research tool - to generate deep research on evidence-backed learning techniques. AnswerThis.io is the website to check it out, and you can use the discount code FRANK20 if you decide to go Pro. The resulting paper was incredibly well constructed, so I tossed it into NoteBookLM and generated this episode! The results were impressive - but I'll let you decide on that. Both tools are worth experimenting more with.  I'm especially interested in using them as a way to join the conversation, but have an "expert guest" challenge my thinking.

    Learning Journals for Metacognition

    Send us a text Metacognition - thinking about how we think - is a key element in producing better learning outcomes for ourselves and those we teach. To help my own students develop metacognitive skills - I introduce them to Learning Journals. These Learning Journals are self-reflection not only on the subjects we are studying, but also an opportunity for students to reflect on their own learning process.
