I had a wonderful day yesterday presenting a short piece on the size of the catch-up problem before moderating a conversation with three experts about how to fix it.
Had two amazing days at @BriarRoadPS2560 with @EdResearchAU Australian Education Research Organisation -
Hard working, passionate, talented teachers & amazing kids!
Canโt wait to come back!
100%. The Premier's statement also acknowledged that these approaches to teaching work for ALL our students, a point made clear by the excellent work @DrKatedeBruin's team did for @EdResearchAU last year: edresearch.edu.au/research/rโฆ
Structured evidence-based reading and writing instruction is for all students without exception. This includes students with #disability
No exceptions.
#InclusiveEducation
Let's not forget our most vulnerable readers in high school. If you want to know more how to support adolescents whi are struggling in reading, join our network on June 27 and hear from successful initiatives around Australia shorturl.at/1cXC5@EducationHQ_AU@EdResearchAU
Today's an exciting day - @EdResearchAU's MTSS resources are now live. Building on existing work, this guidance is more specific and granular, as to support schools using MTSS in many contexts. My personal favourites are the videos - please go and check them out!
Webinar Week @ceacg We were lucky to have @AdamInder sharing the work of @EdResearchAU abt how to assist struggling adolescent readers. Stay tuned new materials coming up next month! Key msgs: use a decision tree for reading to identify gaps, screen, intervene & track ss progress
I'm excited to be presenting next Friday! @EdResearchAU has partnered with @DyslexiaSPELD to deliver school guidance on supporting secondary students with reading - Genevieve McArthur from DSF will help me give a sneak preview before the work is published in April.
The Language, Literacy & Learning Conference is not to be missed! Hear from local and international experts about current research and evidence-informed approaches to teaching and intervention in the fields of language, literacy & numeracy acquisition. dsfconference.com.au
Well done @buckingham_j - my session later in the day at @SharingBestPrac Parramatta will add some further layers to inform how secondary schools can set up and run interventions for reading, as well as for writing and numeracy.
A list of five evidence-backed maths teaching practices that have been proven to maximise student outcomes have been flagged by a group of internationally-recognised researchers and educators. educationhq.com/news/maths-pโฆ
"Engagement and enjoyment are not synonymous with each other."
- Allan Dougan, @aamtinc at #mawacon2023
Discussions at my table today have touched on how engagement perhaps ties more closely to competency rather than a fun/enjoyable activity.
Thanks to Allan Dougan from @aamtinc for presenting at #mawacon2023. We can't have "21st Century Skills" without development of foundational skills and knowledge as a base. This leads perfectly into my presentation which explains how we can build those skills!
researchED Perth 2023 is underway in the incredible new theatre at Bob Hawke College!
More than 200 WA teachers and allied professionals are ready for a day of learning what research tells us about successful, transformational and evidence-informed instruction.
#rEDPerth
Just finished a wonderful day at #rEDPerth. The researchED movement keeps going from strength to strength in Australia. There is nothing else like it. Weโre not slick. Weโre not a business. We are a bunch of like-minded individuals who somehow make magic happen. Grassroots rule.
There are only 5 days until this unmissable event! Come along and find out what research tells us about successful, transformational and evidence-informed instruction.
