Soaring heat & other extreme climate events are shutting schools for millions, widening learning gaps My work at World Bank on what govts should do rb.gy/4reheg with @sergiovm1989 @LaraNSchwarz [figure below with @angrist_noam]
News✨📚Luminos is thrilled to welcome our newest Advisory Board member, @ArmandoAli10! Armando brings with him a wealth of experience mobilizing citizens to enhance the quality of #education. We're grateful for Armando’s commitment of his time and expertise to our mission.

Absolutely correct. Fewer than 10% attended high schools in the 1890s, and they typically had admissions tests and sometimes end of grade tests to advance. A good text on this is WJ Reese, The Origins of the American High School.

Kudos to @Purdue for the innovative ways it’s serving its community: 1) Has not raised tuition since 2012 2) Created STEM-focused charter high schools to increase # of underrepresented students at Purdue via preferred admission 3) Partnered with comm college Ivy Tech to offer…
This fall, I got an e-mail from a guy named JM Simpson who'd read things I'd written about homelessness. He mentioned he was a photojournalist in Olympia and that he'd been photographing the unhoused population there. He wanted to share some work with me . . . (1)
If a big lesson of education research is that niche-community-school-with-motivated-educators-and-aligned-parents is excellent but unlikely to generalize to policy, then the follow-up lesson is that you should do things that are excellent but unlikely to generalize to policy
"Scientific research has clearly demonstrated the efficacy of explicit instruction when students are introduced to novel concepts & procedures. Teacher-led instruction involves the provision of clear explanations, demonstration of examples & immediate corrective feedback during…

True education equity is ensuring advanced students from modest means have just as much a chance to thrive as those who can afford supplemental classes - i.e., accelerated learning options within public school. hollykorbey.substack.com/p/can-parents-…

While the international development world is committed to putting more resources in the hands of local partners, the question remains: how does it work best in practice? 💡📋 Here are five tips from the #LuminosMethod for building effective partnerships. luminosfund.org/blog/five-tips…
When I watch good math teaching, I see purpose and urgency in the instruction - "not a minute to waste". This on its own is not to everyone's taste, same with the concept of bell-to-bell teaching. These teachers "teach briskly" both for attention and to fit in more practice. 1/
Say what you will about decodables taking the joy from reading, BUT... When you watch a child, who has a million obstacles in his life, who said loudly "I can't read" when I met him, and who increased his scores by 110% in 3 months of explicit instruction and intentional…
Luminos lessons are multi-modal, incorporating tactile and physical activities along with visual and auditory methods to keep students alert and engaged! Using physical objects in math lessons is especially important, helping students build their conceptual understanding. 🔢💡
The progressive case for Direct Instruction: the idea that all students can learn under the right conditions.
Gentle reminder: You don’t have to understand people’s experiences to be kind. Kindness doesn’t require logic, it requires grace.
That’s another thing Not only do students like explicit instruction, they dislike group projects

@MrZachG My first year teaching I stupidly blurted out that “I hate teaching poetry, so we will suffer together” (trying to “build connections). After, it made me step back and rethink how I approach teaching, even with units I don’t care for.
Probably a good idea if you’re a teacher to believe in the power of an education. I’ve observed way too many lessons where the teacher felt obliged to tell students that ultimately none of this matters, you’ll just forget it, and AI and calculators have made knowing it obsolete.
