Some videos of me saying stuff about education
Mar 10, 2017
Recently, Swedish education magazine, Lärarnas Tidning interviewed me about my views on various aspects of education. For those interested in seeing me do a very poor Stewart Lee impersonation, they've posted a few short clips on their YouTube channel. Here they are:1. The importance of explicit instruction
2. Why 'grit' doesn't make much sense
3. Professionalism
4. Why teachers need to have high expectations of children's behaviour
5. How evidence can change minds
6. The appeal of gimmicks
The Learning Spy Substack is a sharp, provocative dispatch from the front lines of education, where ideas are tested, myths are challenged, and nothing is taken for granted.
