Willingham, Daniel T. – Education Next, 2018
Shouldn't teachers learn how children think during their training? In this essay, the author considers why they don't and what we might do about it.

We asked whether these differences reflect the differences in parental gesture input. Our systematic observations of 23 children with ASD and 23 with DS (M[subscript…
