Ep31: One-pager 11 - Are They Listening?

In the latest One-Pager from the #TeachTechLeadPodcast [https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/all/?keywords=%23teachtechleadpodcast&origin=HASH_TAG_FROM_FEED], Angus Humphries [https://www.linkedin.com/in/angus-humphries-a60915123/] asks "Are they listening?" ... with the cheeky sub-title... "and why not?". Do we bombard students with long and verbose amounts of content and instructions, without first considering the cognitive load of students and how much they are actually taking in?

Ep30: One-pager 10 - Five Things!

In the latest One-Pager from the #TeachTechLeadPodcast [https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/all/?keywords=%23teachtechleadpodcast&origin=HASH_TAG_FROM_FEED], Angus Humphries [https://www.linkedin.com/in/angus-humphries-a60915123/] pitches "Five Things"! We all know the power of reading and writing and the transformative thinking that results. This technique discusses setting up a structured class room environment where students read with purpose, make notes (not just randomly) and the have an opportunity to discuss or share these notes without referring to the source material.

Ep28: Ashleigh Martin #Lead

Gus and I had the pleasure of chatting to Ashleigh Martin, the Principal of Caulfield Grammar School. He is widely recognized for his forward-thinking approach to education, with a strong focus on innovation, student wellbeing, and preparing young people for a rapidly changing world. Under his leadership, the school has continued to evolve as a leading independent school, embracing new models of learning while staying grounded in strong community values.

Brent Sheffield is a high school English teacher with a decade of experience driving real, measurable student growth in a Title 1 school. Brent focusses on simplifying the practices that actually move the needle - things like clear explanations, spaced retrieval, and consistent feedback.  Brent is a graduate of Florida’s High Impact Teacher Corps and has served as an English Department Chair, leading curriculum and teacher development through significant change. Brent also writes and speaks about a philosophy he calls “Ugly Learning”—the idea that real learning is often messy, uncomfortable, and driven by results, not appearances.  Gus and I really enjoyed our conversation with Brent - and we are sure you will to!
