Editor's Notes
- In fact, knowledge is the basis of everything that we do. The knowledge is the foundation of all of the learning that takes place.
- Especially at KS4, but clearly we need to start preparing students at KS3 for what will happen to them as they move through school.
- We are also fighting against the idea of the ‘Google Generation’ - do they need to know it if they can just look it up?
- When you know the building blocks of grammar, it changes the way that you think about writing When you know your times tables, it changes the way that you think about maths
- That doesn’t mean that we simply deliver facts and information, or that we go back to an old fashioned method of delivering the curriculum
- We are still looking for active learning, for discussions, for group work etc
- Herman Ebbinghaus - Forgetting Curve
- The idea of this is that it highlights what we have forgotten - presumably we all knew this stuff once...
- Examples of maths and english curriculums - interleaving
- Discussion about what stops people using multiple choice questions
- Even the Ivy League Universities use MCQ for their entrance exams
- Ed Hirsch - 84 year old retired English Professor
- Dylan William definition of a hinge question - Do they know this well enough to move on? The hinge picture links to a video of DW talking about hinge questions, if you need it.
- Wiliam describes writing an effective multple choice question as an art form

- Sometimes we move too quickly to the higher order skills as we consider them to be more important We need to be sure that they have the underlying knowledge to be able to access these skills.
- The misconception is that adding a zero does not impact on the mean - it does!
- All you need to know for the first is that he wrote in the 19th century. For the second you need to know the exact date it was written.
- Offer more than one correct answer
- Longer written assessments and exam style tests often suffer from a ‘lag’ - we get the information when it is too late to intervene. MCQ can come at a time when intervention will be more useful.
