Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect, I am your host, Dr. Zach Groshell, and this week I am excited to share with you my interview with Jean Stockard from the Direct Instruction podcast. There are plenty of introductions in the recording, so I’ll make this part quick.
First, I am looking to establish more long-term relationships with schools so that the effective methods that feature on this podcast are actually being embedded into classrooms. You can find a brief overview of the professional development that I provide in the show notes, and on my website, educationrickshaw.com. If you are ready for your school to take the plunge into the science of learning and effective teaching, consider having me over for training and consulting.
Second, Progressively Incorrect is sponsored by John Catt Educational, which is the publisher of my forthcoming book, and the purveyor of lots of great books on teaching and learning. This week I wanted to highlight The Retrieval Practice series by Kate Jones. As listeners of this podcast will know, retrieval practice is a simple but powerful strategy, in which bringing information to mind enhances learning. You can clicks the links in the show notes to choose between all four of Kate’s books on Retrieval Practice, including Retrieval Practice Primary: A guide for primary teachers and leaders.
Now, that’s enough from me, I hope you enjoy this fantastic episode about 5 decades of research on DI with the excellent, Jean Stockard.
