Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect and to the season 3 Finale of this podcast. In this final episode before I take a break for the summer, we are going out with a bang by bringing back one of the most respected and influential cognitive psychologists in the world, Paul Kirschner.

Before we go over to Paul, I wanted to thank all of you for supporting me and this show. This season, I was able to interview 31 fabulous guests, and I hope that their insights and research helped you grow and perhaps even improved your teaching. You’ll be happy to know that, along the way, the number of listeners of Progressively Incorrect has grown exponentially, which has led to a lot of opportunities for me. John Catt from Hodder Education became a sponsor of this show, and at about the same time I signed with them to write a book. It may be too early to share this, I don’t know, but the book is titled, “Just Tell Them” and it is all about how to model and explain your content area explicitly and directly. If you go to the show notes of this episode, you will find an early design of the cover art, which has a nice pop art vibe that I really like. Look out for the release of “Just Tell Them: The Art and Science of Explanation” sometime next school year.

My other announcement is that, after taking a long walk into the meadow, I’ve decided to quit my day job to give full-time consulting a try. Schools have been asking me for the past two years to help them bring evidence-informed practice to their teachers, but I’ve been unable to accommodate all the requests while also having to report to a brick and mortar building. While it was hard to say goodbye to my middle school and all the wonderful people there, I am excited about the new adventure ahead of me. My August is already packed with training gigs in North Carolina, Colorado, and New York, and I will be keynoting at researchED Chile in the fall, among several other opportunities. In shifting my time and energy to this work, I hope to be able to play a larger role in improving learning and instruction across this country.

Alright, that’s enough from me, please join me in welcoming Dr. Paul Kirschner back onto the show to update us on the latest debates over inquiry and explicit instruction.

Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect, I am your host, Dr. Zach Groshell. This episode is the second of two DI podcast episodes that I am releasing this weekend ahead of the Progressively Incorrect Season 3 finale with Paul Kirschner.

This podcast is brought to you by John Catt Educational, which publishes some of the best books in education. Since this episode is about Big DI, I thought I’d once again highlight the book, Direct Instruction: A Practitioner’s Handbook, by Kurt Engelmann. You can listen to Kurt talk about his book on Season 3 Episode 7 of this podcast, and if you buy the book and turn the first few pages, you’ll even find a little book blurb by me! It’s an excellent book, and perfect for people who want the latest text on Direct Instruction.

Now, without further ado, let’s go on over to the DI podcast and learn about instructional design for math.

Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect, I am your host, Dr. Zach Groshell. Today I am thrilled to be speaking with Meg Lee and Jim Heal, two educators at the cutting-edge of evidence-based education. They’re going to be talking to us about the work they’re doing to scale the science of learning up and across this fine country through their Learning Science Consortium… let’s hope it takes off, because it feels like we’re paddling upstream sometimes to our friends in the UK and Australia.

This podcast is brought to you by John Catt Educational, which publishes some of the best books in education. This week I’d like to do one more plug for the book, Responsive Coaching by Josh Goodrich, mainly because it is amazing. Josh has written a book that perfectly addresses the issues I’ve had as an instructional coach. It outlines a practical, efficient, and accountable approach to instructional coaching that just makes so much sense. This is one of the best books I’ve read in 2024, folks, and I highly recommend you check it out.

Did you know that I support schools nationwide and internationally to develop their instructional frameworks based on the ideas I talk about every week on this podcast? If you’re looking for high quality professional development on cognitive load theory, explicit instruction, and the science of learning, please don’t hesitate to send me a message through my Contact page, which is linked in the show notes. We can meet on Zoom and put together a plan that moves your school forward.

Now, without further ado, let’s roll the tape of my discussion with two of the leading change makers in education, Meg Lee and Jim Heal.

Welcome back to Progressively Incorrect, I am your host, Dr. Zach Groshell. Today I am very excited to be speaking with Scott Hill, the Superintendent of Evergreen School Division in Manitoba, Canada. We will be talking about evidence-informed school leadership, including the shift that Evergreen has made towards a science of reading based curriculum, and the decision to embed Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction into their strategic plan. If you’re a school leader or a decision maker yourself, I hope you listen to this episode closely… Scott and Evergreen are doing fantastic things in this space, and I was totally honored he agreed to come on Progressively Incorrect to lend his expertise.

Before we head over to Corey, I wanted to highlight two things that are keeping the lights on over at Progressively Incorrect headquarters. The first is that this podcast is brought to you by John Catt Educational. This week I am excited to highlight the book, One Pagers by Jaime Clark. In this practical little book, Jamie presents over 50 ultra-concise A4 summaries that share important ideas about good teaching. This unique book is certain to help teachers and leaders to reflect on their practices, build pedagogical knowledge, and generate professional discussion.

The second thing is to consider having me over at your school to lead interactive workshops on the concepts you hear me talk about every week on this podcast. Just as an example, I am heading out this weekend to work with teachers and instructional coaches on developing scientifically informed math instruction. We will talk about how to develop coherent lesson sequences based on principles from cognitive load theory, desirable difficulties, and the instructional hierarchy. You can reach me to set up a Zoom through my Contact page, which is linked in the show notes.

Now, without further ado, let’s roll the tape of my discussion with one of the most helpful, insightful, and dynamic people I’ve had a pleasure to interview on this podcast, Dr. Corey Peltier.
