058 Habits Of Mind & Scaffolded Argumentation

Release Date:  December 14, 2021 Leave a Comment

Episode Synopsis

All learning is brain-based, which means taking care of our brain is part of a good education. We read a scoping review to look at some examples of how healthy habits can impact learning, motivation, and mental wellness.

Later, we read a study that compared the efficacy of student argumentation when approached collaboratively or adversarially. The results suggest there are specific benefits to helping students argue in parallel.

NOTE: equipment problems have caused some issues with sound quality. Our apologies, and we are making changes for future tapings.
