@Ready4rigor recently joined NPR's Teaching Matters Podcast to discuss:
-Over-scaffolding
-Why only the learner learns
-The five learn-to-learn moves
-Cognitive friction and production struggle
-and more!

“Competence precedes confidence!” @Ready4rigor
It’s sooooo great to hear a presentation that focuses on the science of learning today! There has been a constant theme throughout today’s ResearchEd Canada conference:
just saying “equity” isn’t enough without measurable, actionable steps towards equity; and knowing the research isn’t enough.
Teachers need to know WHAT that looks like and how to translate it into real-life classroom practice!!! #ScienceOfLearning @researchEDCan @nsachdeva2019

Could there be a better conversational duo than @leaningshane and @Ready4rigor? (This is a rhetorical question.)

Always remember: Reading isn’t just comprehension. It’s curiosity.
Curiosity fuels deeper learning & lasting understanding. It grows when students question, notice patterns, and wrestle w/ ideas. Turn reading into inquiry. Build learning power. Join: bit.ly/ready4rigor #edu
Youre not one strategy away. You're one system away. New protocols will not fix disconnected instructional design. My Instructional Design & Planning Cohort is about that shift.
Design for how students process and apply learning. Register by 6/19: ready4rigor.com/summerplc #edu
Do we want our support to be a bridge or a ceiling? 👀
In #edu, over-scaffolding remains a ceiling as students are guided through work, not prepared to take it on. Register by 6/19 to join my Summer Cohort and let’s design for learning power: ready4rigor.com/summerplc

Book club finale: thank you @Ready4rigor for helping us deepen our work & strengthen instruction for our learners. We are committed to helping students learn how to learn—because cognitive justice means every child gets access to rigorous instruction, opportunity, and success.
What if your lessons actually built independence? Most move students through work, not into it. Cognitive independence is designed.
My Summer Cohort is all about that shift & you’ll leave it w/ new tools that build learning power. Join me: ready4rigor.com/summerplc #edu
Coverage is not learning. You can check off standards & still not build students’ ability to process, retain, or apply knowledge. Rigor is about how well students can think.
Let’s design for learning power together. Secure your spot by 6/19: ready4rigor.com/summerplc #edu
#Teachers get smarter together, through shared practice, data, & deepening student thinking. That’s the why behind my upcoming offerings.
Join my 5/5 talk on designing instruction that builds learning power & keep going in my PLC: linktr.ee/ready4rigor #TeacherAppreciationWeek
Happy to be talking about the intersection of equity and the science of learning in this month’s edition of the Learning Professional.
I will share some of those thoughts in my keynote ay @researchED_US on May 2 in NYC alongside @nsachdeva2019 the other featured keynote.
The Learning Professional is at researchED this weekend! Our new science of learning-focused issue will be included in researchED conference attendee bags. We are honored to contribute to the great discussions that will be happening at researchED NYC on May 2, as researchers, authors, policy makers and practitioners gather to learn about the science of learning. ow.ly/qcWt50YS3HL
Look, AI can support #edu, but it can’t replace instruction that builds thinking.
When students aren’t doing the cognitive work, gaps don’t close. Join my free 5/5 webinar to unpack what it takes to design instruction that builds real learning power: ready4rigor.com/ai-generated…
If you’ve been saying “I’ll redesign my units this summer,” don’t wait. We can’t close learning gaps w/ engagement strategies alone. Only the learner learns.
Register to join my Summer Cohort (June–Aug) & build lessons that build real learning power: ready4rigor.com/summerplc #edu
