I co-constructed a very successful model with my Year 10s today. We used it as a basis to explain many different phenomena.
Rather than a single explanation like most diagrams provide, models provide the springboard to many explanations.

Redesigning our Year 9 curriculum to include Semmelweis and Snow, and vaccinations. Explaining through causality is part of our curricular metacontent. So these models build on a culture of explaining.

It's exam season; few lessons this week. But we did co-enact a new model with my 14-year-olds.
We were able to discuss the law of requisite variety and negative feedback loops; part of our metacontent (link↓)

Is "I do, we do, you do" the right vision of a lesson?
When teachers step into the classroom, we never act alone. There is no “I do”. Each of our actions is a response, a small arc, in a continual loop consisting of ourselves, our tools, and our students.

¿Podrían los exámenes estandarizados salvar la pedagogía española?
▸En Inglaterra, se supone que el aprendizaje se debe principalmente a la calidad de la enseñanza.
▸En España, se supone que el aprendizaje se debe principalmente al esfuerzo del alumno.

De importancia enorme para mi, muchas veces los examenes no son acumulativos. Veo a profes enseñar algo durante 2 semanas, poner una parcial, suspender a algunos por sacar la nota 49% (nota arbitraria), e ir para adelante con otros contenidos y no volver a mencionar contenidos anteriores nunca más
