‘Education policy in England is largely designed - and too often implemented - by those furthest from the consequences of its design. Success is measured in pilot schemes, glossy reports, and favourable headlines.’ And in Ireland? #edchatie

Big news stories this week about Sweden & Norway moving away from screens in the classrooom. I see similar in the UK - schools who were early adopters of screens now going back to pen & paper. People are realising that some technologies are just not suited for some purposes.



Students remember more when they write it down on paper. Not type it. Not screenshot it. Write it! The act of writing slows students down, adds tactile feedback, and helps lock it into memory.

Fascinating…& how are those “inclusive classes” different from the special classes that already exist? Oh wait…they’re the exact same…except they have DOUBLE the students with the same resources… what an improvement 😒 Btw existing special classes are also “inclusive”
