  1. Self-reported measures (surveys) are often not correlated or even negatively correlated w/more objective measures (such as observations, scenario/performance assessments). Examples:

  13. AI Literacy Across the Curriculum
    edtechdev.wordpress.com/2025/1
    Mastering #AILiteracy or indeed any literacy is also not something that can be done in a single lesson or even a single course, but is instead better distributed throughout students’ education (see for example Writing Across the Curriculum)

  15. Asset-based Approaches to Student Success
    edtechdev.wordpress.com/2025/1
    In the past, I’ve shared strategies that have been shown to improve #StudentSuccess, but none of those are effective if we or our students have a fixed mindset (belief that intelligence is fixed) or deficit thinking (focusing on what students lack instead of what they bring to the table). The alternatives are growth mindset (intelligence can grow with effort) and asset-based approaches).

  16. Teaching Tips: The First Major Exam or Assignment
    edtechdev.wordpress.com/2025/0
    A sampling of some research-based practices you may find useful for before, during, and after your first major assessment to improve student success and help struggling students turn things around afterward.

  17. Strong claim from a recent article on using AI to evaluate teaching: "AI evaluation removes human bias in teaching assessment" sciencedirect.com/science/arti
    Sort of ironically, I asked AI to evaluate this claim. Gemini 2.5: this is an overstatement, but AI may serve as a "complementary component within a comprehensive, multi-method evaluation framework." docs.google.com/document/d/1V0
    ChatGPT 4.1: The claim is "misleading in its absoluteness" drive.google.com/file/d/1p_69v

  18. “The Ones that Care Make all the Difference”: Perspectives on Student-Faculty Relationships
    link.springer.com/article/10.1
    "We identified four themes for faculty practices: (1) Creating Pedagogical Space, (2) Being Inclusive and Aware, (3) Being Engaged and Engaging Students, (4) Doing More Than Teaching."

  19. The promise of mastery-based testing for promoting student engagement, self-regulated learning, and performance in gateway STEM courses sciencedirect.com/science/arti
    Used the OLI chemistry course oli.cmu.edu/courses/general-ch
    "With mastery-based testing, students chose to repeat exams when they struggled.
    Repeating tests was linked to an increase in use of online study resources.
    Repeating tests was linked to higher final exam grades, especially for first-gen students."

  20. Testing out a #DeepResearch tool on the topic of: Research-Based #Teaching Techniques for Improving Student Retention in Online Courses
    opendeepresearch.dev/chat/OSVu
    Here are also links to NotebookLM summaries and a podcast version:
    docs.google.com/document/d/108
    Not a bad job although it's a bit short and doesn't provide specific examples and is a bit out of date (flipgrid no longer exists). Doesn't mention most of the techniques I list here: canvas.instructure.com/courses

  21. Building Students’ Confidence and Learning Skills in Online Classes: Lessons from the Postsecondary Collaborative (slides and paper) ccrc.tc.columbia.edu/presentat
    "the Collaborative identified three interventions instructors can embed in their online classrooms: videos, prompts, and student–peer interaction networks"
