The Field of Education is Due For a Copernican Revolution
2025 May, ~5750 words • You'd think that teacher training programs would focus on the mechanics of learning, but instead they typically focus on ritualistic compliance. If we trained doctors like we do teachers, then we'd still be bloodletting. Teacher credentialing severely lacks rigor, and this lack of rigor leads to a massive loss in human potential. Students suffer for it, and it drives serious educators out of the profession. It attracts and supports the type of people who think it's more important to practice sharing circles than to learn about the importance and implementation of spaced review. When you make it your mission to maximize student learning -- including leveraging the learning-enhancing practice techniques that have been known, reproduced, and yet ignored by the education system for decades -- you realize that there is a massive amount of human potential being left on the table. Students can be learning way, way, way more than they currently are.
