Teaching is an art, and yes, it’s a science as well. In this episode of Literacy Talks, our three literacy experts talk about both the art and science of teaching. They unpack the need for educators to apply strategic learning science to instructional methods to ensure all students have optimum opportunities to learn. Our hosts talk movingly about the art of teaching, and the deep-rooted sense teachers have about knowing their students and their individual needs. It’s an enlightening and affirming look at today’s classroom practice, giving us even more appreciation for the work teachers do every day.
