Research consistently shows that interleaving--strategically mixing content, skills, or problem types across lessons and practice sequences--produces stronger long-term retention than blocked practice, where one topic is taught and practiced to completion before moving on. That said, most lesson and practice design defaults to blocked approaches because they feel more organized and manageable. This session unpacks the science behind interleaving, addresses the common misconception that struggle means failure, and gives participants a practical framework for applying interleaving in both their lesson sequencing and student practice design. You can implement this research-backed strategy immediately with or without technology and in any content area or grade level. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Explain the research basis for interleaving and distinguish it from blocked practice design. 2. Apply interleaving principles to redesign at least one lesson sequence or student practice activity. 3. Identify common misconceptions about interleaving--including productive struggle--and address them with students and colleagues. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

Meaningful classroom discussion doesn't happen by accident--it happens by design. When students lack the academic language to enter a conversation, they disengage, defer, or disappear. Talk stems give every student a structured, supported entry point into academic discourse, building the conversational skills that research consistently connects to deeper learning, language development, and equitable participation. This session blends the proven practices of Zwiers and Crawford's Academic Conversations with Resnick's Accountable TalkA'® framework to help participants understand why structured talk matters and how to design talk stem activities that work across content areas and grade levels. Participants will explore a range of talk stem structures, experience them as learners, and leave with classroom-ready activities they can implement immediately. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Connect the research-backed practices of academic conversations and accountable talk to the purposeful design of classroom talk stems. 2. Design at least one structured talk activity using talk stems appropriate for their content area and grade level. 3. Identify how structured talk supports equitable participation and amplifies student voices that are often marginalized. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

Predictable classroom routines do more than manage behavior: they reduce cognitive load, build student confidence, and create consistency that allows all learners to focus on thinking rather than navigation. But not all routines are created equal. This session explores two research-informed frameworks for building high-impact instructional routines: EduProtocols, which give teachers repeatable lesson structures that students internalize over time; and Project Zero thinking routines, which make student thinking explicit, discussable, and transferable across content areas. Participants will explore examples from both frameworks, experience selected routines as learners, and leave ready to implement at least two routines in their own classrooms. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Explain how predictable instructional routines reduce cognitive load and support diverse learners, drawing on EduProtocols and Project Zero's thinking routines as evidence-informed examples. 2. Select and implement at least two routines from either framework that are appropriate for their content area and grade level. 3. Design a plan for introducing and sustaining a new routine with students, including how to build familiarity over time. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

Creating a video is easy. Creating a video that actually helps students learn requires something more intentional. In this session, participants explore the research-grounded principles behind effective instructional video design and learn to apply them using free tools already available to most educators. We'll examine what makes a video a true learning object -- not just a recording -- and use cognitive science to inform decisions about length, structure, and the relationship between visuals and narration. Participants will also get a practical introduction to Google Vids and Canva's video capabilities as accessible, no-cost options for recording and producing instructional content. No hands-on recording required -- this is a pedagogy-first session focused on design thinking before tool use. Appropriate for all grade levels and content areas. No prior video creation experience required. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Apply cognitive load theory to determine optimal length and structure for instructional videos. 2. Evaluate existing video content using the coherence and redundancy principles of multimedia learning. 3. Select appropriate free tools to produce accessible, visually congruent, and engaging instructional content. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

Graphic organizers are among the most research-supported tools in a teacher's instructional toolkit, but they're also among the most frequently misused. When reduced to fill-in-the-blank busywork, they add little value--but when designed with intention, they leverage the power of dual coding and nonlinguistic representation to strengthen comprehension, retention, and higher-order thinking. This session draws on Marzano's research to help participants understand why graphic organizers work--and how to design and use them in ways that actually support instruction. Participants will explore a range of organizer types, examine examples of purposeful versus superficial use, and leave with a set of classroom-ready designs they can adapt or implement immediately in any content area and grade level. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Connect dual coding theory and Marzano's research on nonlinguistic representation to the purposeful use of graphic organizers. 2. Design a graphic organizer intentionally aligned to a specific thinking skill or learning goal. 3. Distinguish between graphic organizers that deepen thinking and those that function as busywork. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.
Graphic organizers are among the most research-supported tools in a teacher's instructional toolkit, but they're also among the most frequently misused. When reduced to fill-in-the-blank busywork, they add little value--but when designed with intention, they leverage the power of dual coding and nonlinguistic representation to strengthen comprehension, retention, and higher-order thinking. This session draws on Marzano's research to help participants understand why graphic organizers work--and how to design and use them in ways that actually support instruction. Participants will explore a range of organizer types, examine examples of purposeful versus superficial use, and leave with a set of classroom-ready designs they can adapt or implement immediately in any content area and grade level. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Connect dual coding theory and Marzano's research on nonlinguistic representation to the purposeful use of graphic organizers. 2.

Effective formative assessment isn't a quiz at the end of a lesson -- it's an ongoing instructional process that happens during learning. In this session, participants will reframe formative assessment as a continuous feedback loop (Collect, Interpret, Respond) and explore how free, low-barrier digital tools can make that loop fast enough to actually change what happens next in the classroom. Whether you're looking for a two-minute digital check-in or a strategy for making sense of what you see and responding on the spot, this session will give you a practical toolkit and a mental model to help you put it to use. Participants will leave with immediately applicable research-based strategies, free edtech tool recommendations, and the confidence to make formative assessment a natural, low-prep part of every lesson. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Connect Hattie's feedback research and Wiliam's embedded formative assessment framework to specific classroom assessment practices. 2. Select and implement at least two formative assessment strategies appropriate for their content area and grade level. 3. Use real-time assessment data to make an immediate instructional decision during or after a lesson. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

Break down language barriers in group communication with FlaiChat, a mobile messaging app that automatically translates incoming text and voice messages so participants can communicate in their preferred languages. Users can create private group chats, invite others with a link or QR code, share photos, organize messages with threaded replies, and communicate across more than 40 supported languages, including hybrid language use such as Spanglish. Voice features can translate recorded messages, and users can create a voice clone so translated speech sounds like their own voice. The Speak Together feature supports live, face-to-face translation on a shared device. FlaiChat is currently available for iOS and Android, while desktop and web versions are still in development. Some advanced features, including Speak Together Mode, are locked to FlaiChat Plus. Although app-store listings carry broad consumer age ratings, FlaiChat's own privacy policy states that children under 13 should not register for or use the service.

Ask students to work in pairs to record short pronunciation samples with Online Voice Recorder, reviewed here, then exchange the recordings through FlaiChat and discuss how pronunciation, pacing, and word choice affect the translated message. Have students investigate a culturally relevant question, discuss their evidence in FlaiChat, and then organize competing claims for a class debate with Kialo Edu, reviewed here. Invite multilingual students to contribute ideas to a small-group discussion in the language in which they can express themselves most effectively, then have the group use the translated messages to create a shared summary and compare how the same ideas are expressed across languages.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Turn the words students already need to learn into short, game-based practice with WordyKid. The site lets users work with spelling lists, homework words, worksheets, reading pages, books, photos, and other text, and then practice vocabulary, reading, spelling, listening, speaking, writing, and translation through a variety of games. Game choices include Memory Match, Listening Bingo, Word Match, Speak the Word, Word Striker, Word Bowling, Word Flight, Magic Dictation, and other activities. The platform supports English, Spanish, Hebrew, Arabic, and Russian and includes level and reading-readiness settings, saved progress, parent statistics, child profiles, friends features, and leaderboards. Free access currently unlocks all games for 10 hours, so teachers should plan around that concrete usage limit.

Little Language Lessons is an experiment from Google Labs providing bite-sized language lessons in fifteen languages, teaching vocabulary, phrases, slang, and more in your chosen language. Begin by choosing from one of the three categories: Tiny Lesson, Slang Hang, and Word Cam. Tiny Lesson helps users learn vocabulary, phrases, and grammar tips; Slang Hang provides expressions and regional slang; and Word Cam uses your photos to help users learn from their surroundings. After selecting a language, each activity provides input options; you can view the results as text or listen to the audio response. Because this is an experimental site, it's best to double-check the accuracy of the results.

In the Classroom
In language classes, ask students to type in a scenario, such as ordering at a cafe, asking for directions, or reporting a lost passport, to get instant results in using the language in real-world situations. Integrate Little Language Lessons into a social studies unit and have students add common phrases and information from different countries or cultures. After learning common phrases or identifying items in their chosen language, ask students to use Canva for Education, reviewed here or Google Slides, reviewed here to make a postcard in that language as if they are writing home to tell about their visit to a foreign country.

AnswerThePublic is a keyword-research tool that shows the questions, comparisons, and related phrases people search for online about a topic. Teachers can use it to help students generate research questions, explore possible subtopics, plan informational writing, or identify ideas for inquiry projects. For example, students researching climate change, space exploration, or a historical figure can enter a keyword and review the suggested questions to guide further investigation. The free account includes up to three searches per day, while paid plans offer more searches and additional features. Teachers should remind students that search suggestions are starting points for research and should be checked using reliable sources.
tag(s): search engines (41), Research (94), search strategies (19), artificial intelligence (368)
In the Classroom
Enter a unit topic, such as ecosystems, the American Revolution, or renewable energy, into AnswerThePublic. Students can review the suggested questions and sort them into categories such as questions we can answer with facts, questions that need more research, and questions that may be too broad or unclear. Give students a broad topic, such as volcanoes or civil rights. Students can use AnswerThePublic suggestions to turn the topic into a focused research question, then revise it to make it specific, answerable, and appropriate for the assignment. Before beginning an inquiry unit, create a teacher-selected list of questions generated by the tool. Have students choose one question that interests them, explain why they chose it, and identify two reliable sources they could use to investigate.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
