Old habits die hard, particularly when they are part of the unexamined norms of schooling. In this book, the authors of 'Total Participation Techniques' lead a teacher-positive, empathetic inquiry into 16 common educational practices that can undermine student learning: round robin reading; teaching to learning styles; homework as the default; using interim assessments as 'formative assessments'; traditional Q&A; data-driven everything; publicly displayed data walls; adhering to rigid pacing guides; teaching to test samplers; ignoring curriculum experts; and using behaviour charts.
