Why has England been more successful than the US in aligning education with cognitive science?

Maybe because England uses a different kind of test for accountability.

Read more in my latest post, on a new book by former schools minister Nick Gibb.

Could It Happen Here?
England has made great strides in aligning its education system with cognitive science. Why hasn't the U.S.?

Sarah Cottinghatt schreibt sehr lesenswert über aktuelle Studien zu „prior knowledge” und was dies für die Forderung von Ausubel bedeutet, an das Vorwissen der Lernenden anzuknüpfen.

"... the broader claim that “exercise improves cognition” hardly holds up ..."
What a New Preprint Reveals About Exercise and Cognition

“Exercise makes you smarter”?
A huge new meta-meta-analysis suggests: not really.
Small, uncertain and highly variable cognitive effects once bias is taken seriously.

No, Boys Probably Do Not Learn Better From Male Teachers

A new preprint suggests boys do not automatically learn better from male teachers. Gender matching turns out to be a very limited lever. wp.me/p2nWPo-5uB

"Growth mindest ... accounting for .. 2.9% to 3.2% of the total effect."
Using PISA data from 73 countries, researchers estimated the extent to which growth mindset mediates the association of SES on achievement, and find results consistent w/ the picture of the last 10 years. It's a real effect. It's small. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Modelling and how to plan for it
The current focus on ‘adaptive teaching’ has meant that the craft (or art) of teacher modelling has rightly been foregrounded, as a crucial mechanism for making learning accessible. Interestingly, …

A new paper argues that current generative AI tools offer little benefit for genuine learning unless students already have substantial prior knowledge. genAI gives probabilistic summaries, not the kind of support that builds expertise.

A Major Review Study on the Big Question: Why Is Education So Hard to Change?

This review study shows how institutions, routines and logics keep the status quo stronger than reform. But it doesn’t have to stay that way. theeconomyofmeaning.com/2025/11/21/a...
