I think it has something to do with the 12 days of Xmas carol/nursery rhyme.

Isn't the tradition to put up the tree 12 days before Xmas day and take it down 12 days after?

I would like to see open-access publishing requirements that don't force researchers to shovel millions in research funds to publishers for gold open access. We can make our research open-access in ways that are completely free.

Sure. Thankfully not all do. But when it happens it can lead to popular, but lop-sided understandings of what research has reported about particular topics. See the Open Access piece on this link which highlights one example: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

It seems so according to the title of the video Darren. My point is a general one really. Some researchers are keen to dismiss findings that don't fit with popular (and sometimes their own) views.

Its is always wise to respect, and not ignore, outliers; especially when considering research in education!

We have known for a while that general statements such as “knowledge is power” are misleading. The study on this link calls for systematic research on the conditions under which prior knowledge has positive, negative, or negligible effects on learning.

I don't think the results of the paper should be seen as out of the ordinary. Ed. res. often produces mixed results. It reinforces the need to be wary of absolute claims of effectiveness and to be willing to embrace nuance. As wise researchers know, sometimes things go to plan sometimes they don't
