We really could do with a proper science of implementation in education: millions spent identifying ‘what works’, but little spent on how to make it work. This paper from Fixsen is good: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39478746/

But is ‘what works’ always in CYP’s best interests? #Biesta is fab on this 🤩 www.bera.ac.uk/blog/opening...

Is there really a situation where applying the science identically every time would elicit identical results? There are so many differing variables in each class that no lesson can be the same. Each year group differs hugely in ability range, existing knowledge & interest the subject.

Always amazed when cig Sci is dismissed by remote educators because learning is more complex than that. Agreed, but what is your alternative? Sacrifice a goat and study the entrails?
