Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: connection. We have 4 principles of a practitioner enquiry community: autonomy, disturbance, dialogue and connection. I am going to focus on that last one this week as too often I see disconnected enquiries/1🧵

Practitoner Enquiry Tip of the Week: Dolly's rule. Many people who have listened to me speak have taken away the key message that practitioner enquiry needs to happen in the 9-5, but how flexible is this to teachers' busy lives and working schedules? /1🧵

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: Does size matter? When I'm supporting teachers doing enquiry an unseen force often seems to push them to think quality comes from large sample sizes meaning they make decisions they might otherwise have avoided/1🧵

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: being stuck. This week's inspiration comes from how I'm feeling facing this week's practitioner enquiry tip of the week. Inspiration usually strikes, but its Wednesday afternoon and my brain's full of other stuff /1🧵

Superb!
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: contradictory evidence. Over past few weeks I've established that education is complex, answers are unlikely to be neat and we need to look for exceptions, but what about if your evidence says different things?/1🧵#PractitionerEnquiryTotW
Here is a brilliant article - an extremely comprehensive and critical review of literature about the concept of agency in education - authored by our fabulous and very talented PhD student, Sophie Cathcart, supported by her doctoral superviusors.

Joseph Mitchell's Up in the Old Hotel - his collected works for the New Yorker about the city and its characters - is utterly, utterly brilliant.
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: assessing quality. A lot is written in research textbooks about what makes quality research with words like generalisation, validity and reliability often banded around. But it does depend on what you are doing/1 🧵
