Professional learning should be improving teaching, which ultimately should benefit students. We read a meta-analysis showing that effective teaching methods within professional development is far more likely to impact learning than the learning topic or time spent in the program.
Later, we read a study of student perseverance that underscores the importance of establishing mastery goals with students, while avoiding extrinsic rewards, to increase their perseverance and improve academic performance.

A listener request led us to a paper on eye-tracking technology for emerging multilingual learners. However, our conversation will focus on problems related to AI use and disconnects between the use of technology in the classroom and the real needs of teachers.
Later, we learn about how a person’s fear of evaluation influences their response - both positive and negative - to different kinds of feedback. We reflect on what this means for differentiation within feedback strategies and if our classroom culture can help move students away from fear of feedback.
