One step toward supporting all students is to learn about current education research. What are education researchers finding out? Visit us at informedinstructors.com for some interesting insights! #education #edchat #research #K12 #teaching
Teaching Social Studies in the Era of "Alternative Facts." Researcher and author Wayne Journell offers advice for social studies teachers on how to help students grapple with misinformation and media bias. wp.me/p9EVRv-qu #edchat #sschat #K12 #teachers
"Students enrolled in online classes at community colleges drop out of class at a higher rate than peers in face-to-face environments, according to the Community College Research Center." (2016) bit.ly/2M5UCrm #highered #onlineed
“Clickers are commonly used with lectures. However, the integration of clickers alone into lectures yields trivial effects, if any, on learning outcomes." -Cui Liu et al. Student collaboration is key! #K12 #edchat #edtech #teaching wp.me/p9EVRv-eR
More to come on this soon!
New study suggests that greeting students with a positive message yields benefits. ow.ly/XNq630lP5pr. "Teachers should greet students individually by name, as well as use a non-verbal greeting, and make positive statements encouraging good behavior." @EducationDive
A recent study by Lewis et al. sheds light on correlations between student self-segregation and academic performance. They find that students who frequently eat lunch with peers of different ethnic groups also have higher GPAs. wp.me/p9EVRv-pc #K12 #edchat #teaching
When it comes to boosting students' creativity in the classroom, researchers Chih-Yung Tsai et al. show that time pressure is not always a bad thing. wp.me/p9EVRv-2h #timepressure #creativity #teaching #K12
.@nytimes mentions a body of research including @Thomas_S_Dee & previous @StanfordCEPA Visiting Faculty @SethGershenson which says students tend to benefit from having teachers who look like them, especially nonwhite students nytimes.com/2018/09/10/ups…

Schools need to support students with social and emotional disorders. Research shows that these students not only have lower perceptions of #school climate but are also harassed and bullied at higher rates than students without disabilities. wp.me/p9EVRv-od #K12 #edchat
Do you use funny examples to illustrate a point in class? Researchers San Bolkan et al. argue that humorous examples related to content may actually hamper students' ability to recall that information later. wp.me/p9EVRv-mN #K12 #edchat #teachers #research
Researchers Suzanne F. Lindt and Cody Blair remind us that schools can tap into local institutions to find mentors for at-risk students. High school and college students can make great mentors for younger students. wp.me/p9EVRv-r9 #edchat #research #mentorship #K12
Are classroom reading groups the best way to teach reading? Recent studies raise some hard questions about the value of ability-based reading groups. edweek.org/ew/articles/20…
Building Peer Support and Friendships for Autistic Students in General Education Classes. Bringing out the best in students! wp.me/p9EVRv-gp #edchat #autism #research #teachers
“Providing ample #writing opportunities in which students can write together with a peer enhances their #motivation to write out of inherent satisfaction, pleasure, or recognition of the value of the writing activity." -Fien De Smedt et al. wp.me/p9EVRv-rA #edchat #K12
School administrators should be aware that teachers' perceptions of their school having a learning goal structure vs. a performance goal structure strongly influences their motivation and desire to stay in the teaching profession. wp.me/p9EVRv-nr #edchat #research #K12
Researchers Chung Kwan Lo give empirically tested guidelines for flipping the classroom. They emphasize that teachers do not need to flip the entire class at once. Lessons can be flipped and accumulated over time. wp.me/p9EVRv-sN #K12 #flipclass #research #edchat
“When students assess historical actions, when they seek to understand others’ perspectives, or when they consider how best to move forward from the past, they move into the practice of ethics." -Andrea Milligan et al. See more at informedinstructors.com #K12 #sschat #edchat
Engaging with Morality and Ethics in History. Researchers Andrea Milligan, Lindsay Gibson, and Carla Peck say history teachers would benefit from understanding the philosophy of ethics as they engage with students on questions of morality. informedinstructors.com #edchat #sschat
