How can educators transcend the rote memorization of teaching steps to foster genuine understanding and meaningful learning? Join me, Jocelyn, on this episode of the Structured Literacy Podcast as we uncover the intricate relationships between cognitive load theory, literacy frameworks, and effective classroom practices. We'll dissect Timothy Shanahan's latest insights on the importance of purpose-driven education and explore how building a robust foundation of declarative knowledge can revolutionize both teaching and learning experiences.
We'll also confront the cognitive biases that often skew our self-assessments, spotlighting the Dunning-Kruger effect and its startling implications for educators. Using real-world examples and pivotal research, I'll illustrate how this phenomenon can hinder teaching effectiveness and share strategies to overcome these biases. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that could redefine your approach to education and help you build deeper, more impactful connections with your students.
