I often write about research studies from various fields and how they can be applied to the classroom. I write individual posts about ones that I think are especially significant, and will continue to do so. However, so many studies are published that it’s hard to keep up. So I’ve started writing a “round-up” of some of them each week or every other week as a regular feature.
You can see all my “Best” lists related to education research here.
Here are some new useful studies (and related resources):

What leads us to ignore experts isn’t their knowledge. It’s their arrogance.
Evidence: Scientists are more credible when they admit what they don’t know, acknowledge what they got wrong, and update their views.
