@olicav @C_Hendrick @MrGoodwin23 Related, there's a nice book chapter from 1998 from George Butterworth titled "What is special about pointing in babies?"

@drpaulgarcia @OpenUniversity I know many OU tutors from the 1970s say this, but I liked M101 both as a student, and, later, as a tutor...

@marcportermagee OK; but how many people realize that "proficiency" in NAEP has no relationship to grade level achievement in schools?

@C_Hendrick It is, however, a pretty good test of stamina...

@BrianKisida @vkoganpolisci @rpondiscio Thanks for reposting this. I missed it first time round.

@LearnLead_ @MrZachG @MsBrossLearn Agreed, but I think it is important to stress that it is only general problem solving that is biologically primary—even crows can do it. Problem solving in a particular area, such as math, is biologically secondary.

@C_Hendrick I think I took 9...

@C_Hendrick @peterboghossian Yup. That ship has sailed. Here is a study looking at the average performance of a dozen or so AI-"detectors".

RT @EconTalker: My father loved this song. I do too. Hard to watch without tears even though the only thing I know about the words is that…

@justinskycak I'm not sure it's the least talked about. I seem to be talking about it all the time, trying to help teachers design instruction that is equally effective (or as near as we can make it) for low-WM and high-WM learners

I have now just scanned all of the course units from the @OpenUniversity's M101 introductory mathematics course. I remember thinking they were good at the time but I am pleasantly surprised to see now that they really are very good.

@DebraMasters12 @daisychristo I'm not sure we ever wrote it up, but Jim Popham found something similar with his Instructional Objective Exchange (IOX) and there might be something online about that.

@robin_la_vie Didn't know about this. Thanks.

@DrTozzo Glad you've found my work useful. My alphabetized storage only works because almost every book is also in my EndNote library. Unfortunately, my math textbooks were put on the shelves without being added to the EndNote database 🙁

RT @C_Hendrick: @Beanie0597 That's why I created this course. I wanted teachers to know what I didn't know for the first 5 years of my teac…

@Shawn_R_Frost @rpondiscio Yup.

@Shawn_R_Frost @rpondiscio As per usual, I will attribute it to you the first three times I use it. After that, it's mine...😏

@odea_luz @rpondiscio @MrZachG One (perhaps the main) reason is because the results weren't as clear cut as is often claimed—in educational research they never are—and there were several critiques, which allowed those who wanted to, to reject the findings.
