Your professional learning, one step at a time.
Pick up where you left off, or explore the pathways. Every module is grounded in research and takes under 20 minutes.
Modelling & Worked Examples
You’ve read the research. Next: the 10-question knowledge check, then the classroom models.
Thirteen pathways. The whole job of teaching.
Each pathway groups short modules around one area of practice. Open Modelling & Scaffolding to try a complete module.
Modelling & Worked Examples
New material should be presented in small steps with models, worked examples and teacher thinking made visible. This module unpacks why modelling works — cognitive load, the expert blind spot, and I–We–You.
The research, in brief
Rosenshine, Principle 4: provide models. Worked examples reduce load on working memory so attention goes to the how, not the answer.
Cognitive Load Theory: novices learn more from studying worked examples than problem-solving alone. Fade support as expertise grows.
Think-alouds make expertise visible. Narrating decisions reveals the invisible thinking experts do automatically.
I do → We do → You do. Gradual release, with checking for understanding at each hand-off.
Live modelling beats the perfect example. Building a model in front of pupils shows quality comes from drafting and decisions.
Knowledge check
Ten questions with instant explanations. Retrieval practice, not a test.
Model videos
Placeholders for filmed classroom practice.
Try this tomorrow
Model one written task live under the visualiser, narrating two decisions aloud. Then co-construct a second example before independent work.
