In an era of information saturation, we must be critical consumers of research. Seek complete evidence, demand precise claims, watch for selective citations, and question overextended conclusions. Accuracy, context, and nuance matter!

Direct Instruction (DI) and direct instruction (di) are NOT the same thing.

Sold a Story Season 2 discusses the first, but people may be using its evidence to justify the second.

I've been digging into the original research.

Handwriting is more than putting words on paper; it’s an active learning process that can strengthen memory, deepen understanding, and promote long-term retention.

Our third graders are loving learning cursive! Research shows that handwriting supports brain development, strengthens letter recognition, and enhances learning. In a digital world, putting pencil to paper still matters! @SVVSDsupt @BuchlerStVrain

The case for language-rich instruction:

"The more we practise talking through ideas ... the more fluent we become and the deeper we can go."

"... if talk is useful for one person, thinking things through, building fluency etc – then surely it’s useful for everyone."
