009 Planning Is Essential, Plans Are Useless

Release Date:  August 3, 2017 Leave a Comment

Episode Synopsis

Lesson planning and sequencing seem to be ever present problems for teachers and coordinators. Which topics should go where? Who should have control over making those decisions? Curriculum research in an economics course provides some insight into how we should choose our priorities. As we search for how to create a system for making sequencing decisions we’ll add a second study that suggests not all those questions have a single clear answer.

Later we’ll turn to the impact of SES on how students’ brains respond to different educational situations.
