Each choice, from music and word study to feedback and motivation, rests on current, cited research, so a teacher can see the reason behind the practice.
HOW TO USE THIS PAGE
Open any brief to read it in full. Each one stands on its own and closes with works cited.
We do not ask you to take our word for it. These briefs lay out the research behind how we teach, from the science of music and word study to reading, writing, memory, feedback, and motivation. Each one closes by showing how it lives in The Writing Academy.
