As of Friday 28 November, I’ll be stepping down as Editor-in-Chief of JCAL. It has been a pleasure and an honour to serve you and the research community for the past 12 years. I’m fully confident that my successor, Prof. @j3ro3nj.bsky.social, is the perfect person for the job. #Edusky

Around the world, smartphone bans in schools are being implemented to protect students from distraction and digital overload. But do they work? Is less more? #EduSky www.kirschnered.nl/2025/11/01/w...

Overal ter wereld proberen scholen en universiteiten hun leerlingen te beschermen tegen afleiding en digitale overbelasting door smartphones uit de klas te weren. Misschien is de slimste onderwijstechnologie wel geen technologie, maar stilte. #EduSky www.kirschnered.nl/2025/11/01/a...

When Phones Go Out the Window, Learning Comes In the Door Around the world smartphone bans in schools are being implemented in an attempt to protect students from distraction and digital overload. Maybe the smartest educational technology policy isn’t to add more technology, but to take some of it…

Wow! @educhatter.bsky.social is unleashed! "We can continue down the path of fuzzy, self-absorbed, therapeutic, politicized schooling, where every fad finds its way into the curriculum, or we can restore liberal education as the foundation of our schools." educhatter.wordpress.com/2025/10/24/e...

Het was fijn om te praten met @rinkevanhoeck.bsky.social over illusies in het onderwijs. Je kijkt en ziet iets en gaat jouw brein dat dan interpreteren. Maar je moet/mag je ogen en oren niet altijd vertrouwen. Things are often not what they seem! #EduSky share.transistor.fm/s/17768f5b

If research is to genuinely inform education then translation must be anchored in expertise, rigor, & responsibility. Otherwise, what began as a noble effort to bridge research and practice becomes little more than well-intentioned, but ultimately misleading noise. www.kirschnered.nl/2025/09/21/a...

What is a knowledge-rich curriculum? In any event not just facts, not just math and reading, and not elitist. It is the strongest lever for equity. And thus ultimately a matter of social justice. #EduSky @timsurma.bsky.social, @danielmuijs.bsky.social

School is beginning almost everywhere. Make sure your children/students don't fall victim to the soft bigotry of low expectations. Set the bar high for everyone and help them jump over it! #EduSky

I find it somewhere between unbelievable and disheartening that people without empirical research credentials propose a new, untested, unresearched theory of learning; a new cognitive philosophy (!!) of learning. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... predictablycorrect.substack.com/p/beyond-loa...
