Two Substack Lives happening this week
Ask questions about your proposal for Teaching That Succeeds; talk about how the SOL might improve teacher morale and workload
Hi there Bell Ringers, a short newsletter to invite you to some great stuff happening this week.
But first, a cool map of everyone who is currently subscribing to The Bell Ringer, in 50 states and 115 countries. Thank you all for reading and commenting and emailing to yell at me when needed. It’s an honor to bring you the best reporting and insight I can on the science of learning. (And hey Greenland and Mongolia, let’s get on it, ok? Subscribe!)
This Thursday, April 16, are two Substack Live events you don’t want to miss:
* Thinking of submitting a proposal to speak at the Teaching That Succeeds Symposium? Join this live Q&A answering your questions.
This Thursday evening, April 16 at 8 pm Eastern/ 7 pm Central/ 5 pm Pacific, Elana Gordon from Voices from the Field will be joining me to talk about what makes a great speaker proposal. Elana has done a lot of these presentations, so she is going to share answers to common questions like:
What do we mean by “good data”?
Can this be for any subject area or grade level?
What should I talk about?
And then we are going to take live questions from you all, so come ready!
With this link, you can go right to the livestream and save it to your calendar:
* Can understanding the science of learning improve not just student learning—what about teacher wellbeing and morale? Join this live discussion about the connections and where things might fall apart.
I’m pretty obsessed with this question, and I’m so glad educator Jeff Smith of Teachers Unmuted asked me about it. We are going live on the same day, Thursday, April 16, at 6 pm Eastern/ 5 pm Central/ 3 pm Pacific to talk about it.
