I had a blast talking about cognitive load theory and explicit teaching on Principal Center Radio with Justin Baeder. We also talk about the contents of my new book, which focuses on the early stages of skills acquisition: modeling, explaining and demonstrating efficiently and effectively.

If you enjoyed the episode, I hope you pick up a copy of Just Tell Them: The Power of Explanations and Explicit Teaching, available now on Amazon.

One thought on “Cognitive Load Theory and Explicit Teaching for Principals”

  1. Congratulations, Zach, on the release of your book! As an educator from Argentina and the author of the Udemy course ‘ChatGPT Education‘, I greatly admire your dedication to bringing cognitive science into the classroom. Your work on explicit instruction aligns so well with the way I approach using AI tools like ChatGPT to enhance learning. I’d love for you to take a look at my course, and I believe we share a common goal of improving education with innovative methods. Wishing you continued success, and I look forward to learning more from you!”
