EDU Central REDUX - Revisiting Learning Styles - Unpacking the Myth 2020 (EP:38) With Tesia Marshik, PhD. To close out the year, we are revisiting a classic episode from 2020- because it feels important and timely.  With the rise of personalized learning and the power that AI to help us meet the dream of personalized learning, we are now, more than ever, ready to leverage insights from educational science in ways that can be helpful and not helpful.  Many new technologies have emerged promising to identify learner's Learning Styles and customized learning experiences to align with learning styles. So, understanding the differences between learning styles, preferences, and their impact on learning has become crucial to creating more effective and personalized learning experiences. FROM 2020: Let's talk about learning styles! The idea that we learn better in our "preferred learning style" is pretty pervasive and has become part of popular culture. Scores of consumer sites sell and promote various examples and models, urging people to "find your learning style". But, is there any evidence to support this? As educators, do we have a duty to follow the science? Join Stacy Craft and Associate Professor of Psychology Dr. Tesia Marshik as they unpack the learning styles neuromyth, the culture around this popular idea, why it is harmful and how to persevere to create quality effective educational experiences that still allow learners to reflect on how they learn.

In this episode, Sharona and Bosley speak with Mariah Muller, an English teacher at Santee Education Complex in the Los Angeles Unified School District. Mariah works with Bosley at his school and is in her second year of teaching. In this interview, we explore what it is like to start your teaching career from the beginning using alternative grading practices, and what Mariah's experience with grading has been like as she adapts to being a new teacher. We also thought that this would be an interesting contrast with last week's episode about a long term teacher who teaches new teachers!LinksPlease note - any books linked here are likely Amazon Associates links.

In part 2 of our interview with Dr. Jeff Anderson, we delve deeply into ideas about the connections between grades, behaviourism, and anti-democracy. This is a conversation that goes well beyond the "how-to" of alternative grading and explores the WHY of grades and how they connect to some of the biggest challenges we currently face in our world.LinksPlease note - any books linked here are likely Amazon Associates links.

In a back-to-back special, we're continuing to explore how learning works through the book “How Learning Works: 8 Research Based Principles of Smart Teaching”. Picking up from our last episode with Dr. Marie Norman at the University of Pittsburgh, a short walk down Forbes Ave towards Carnegie Mellon, you can find the office of today's guest, Dr. Marsha Lovett. Starting as a professor in Carnegie Mellon's psychology department, Dr. Lovett now serves as Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning Innovation. She manages the Eberly Center, a team of teaching consultants, learning designers, data scientists, and technologists who help instructors create meaningful and demonstrably effective educational experiences (and still, she has time to teach her psych classes). Dr. Lovett's psychological background was front and center in our chat with her, where we talked about the importance of motivation and engagement in learning, the power of generative learning, and how organizations can really tell if the information they're teaching people is sticking, and working. If you enjoyed our last podcast, this is a great follow up to dive even deeper into how learning really works, so with that…let's bring it in!

How does learning really work? Who better to join us on the podcast than Dr. Marie K. Norman -- the co-author of “How Learning Works: 8 Research Based Principles of Smart Teaching,” to answer the question? After graduating from University of Pittsburgh and acquiring her Ph.D, Dr. Norman began teaching at Carnegie Melon and has been there for 14 years, including designing programs for the Eberly Center for Teaching Excellence. More recently she's moved back to her alma mater as an associate professor of Medicine, Clinical and Translational Science, as well as the Director of the university's Innovative Design for Education and Assessment (IDEA) Lab, where her research focuses on everything from the application of research-based learning principles to teaching to cross-cultural issues in education. We had a great time sitting down with Dr. Norman, where we chatted about exactly how learning works, what generative learning is, why it's so effective, why both challenge and engaging content is so important, and what new updates are being made to the newest edition to “How Learning Works: 8 Research Based Principles for Smart Teaching.” You want to build a high performance workforce?

What is a smock knot? Well, you have to listen to our conversation with our lovely guest and art teacher, Patsy Rausch. Patsy shares with us ways to open up our classroom that invites our students to be creative and engaged, such as using Star Wars figures and telling students to come to the "art side". Her passion for teaching comes across so strongly, especially when we think about an approach that allows for cross-curricular connections. Grab your smock, Darth Vader, and bleacher.

In the final episode of season one, Professor Judy Hardy talk about her work in Physics Education research, discussing the learning techniques the group she works with explores. We also talk about possible alternatives to exams and Professor Hardy gives excellent advice to students.

Learning Science for Better Learning: Carnegie Mellon University's "Simon Initiative"   Dr. Marsha Lovett Director of the Eberly Center for Teaching Excellence & Educational InnovationCarnegie Mellon University   Many students today receive a 19th-century education that is developed without the benefit of contemporary evidence-based research, Carnegie Mellon University's Dr. Marsha Lovett asserts. At Carnegie Science Center's next Café Sci, She'll discuss how a combination of education-based research plus innovations in educational technology can improve students' learning outcomes while further advancing our scientific understanding of how learning works. Carnegie Mellon University's Simon Initiative focuses on leveraging these opportunities and making a difference for local and global learners. The Simon Initiative focuses on the learner and how to improve learning. Dr. Lovett is co-coordinator of The Simon Initiative at Carnegie Mellon University and the director of the Eberly Center for Teaching Excellence & Educational Innovation. Her remarks will present recent results, tools, and examples of how educational theories are being applied. Dr. Lovett has published more than 50 research papers and two books, Thinking with Data and How Learning Works: Seven Research-Based Principles for Smart Teaching. The latter is ranked third on The Chronicle's "Top 10 Books on Teaching" and has been translated into several languages. She has developed several innovative, educational technologies to promote student learning, including StatTutor and the Learning Dashboard. Dr. Lovett earned her doctorate in psychology from Carnegie Mellon University, and her bachelor's degree, also in psychology, is from Princeton University.   Recorded Monday, May 4th, 2015 at Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
