I was pleased to talk with James Mannion and David Cameron (no not that one!) about what we need in #education for all #children to thrive and learn. open.substack.com/pub/drjamesm... @rethinkingjames.bsky.social @labouruk.bsky.social @frederika-r.bsky.social @oxwellresearch.bsky.social
I need to make more of an effort with BSky. @cmooreanderson.bsky.social seems convinced that there is life here...
Enjoyed listening to you on the @rethinkingjames.bsky.social podcast. If we want an alternative to X, we do have to build it!

Hi #EduSky - it was another bumper week from which I have tried to extract a #Saturday3 of interesting educational blogs. Last week, I featured a blog cautioning about PowerPoint and this week, I feature the more radical approach of ditching it!

Finally got around listening to this podcast featuring @rupertwegerif.bsky.social in conversation with @rethinkingjames.bsky.social and David Cameron and it was every bit as good as I expected.
Thank you Mark, that's very kind of you to say. Have a great week!
I am going to include a bonus late-arriving post this week because this from @rethinkingjames.bsky.social was really in my wheelhouse with its link between dialogic teaching and the problems with our democracy. I look forward to listening to the podcast as well.

Most behaviour issues aren’t extreme incidents
They’re the small things: calling out, side conversations, drifting off task
Often the real issue is psychological investment. When students feel they matter, behaviour shifts
