In this fourth episode Adam Kohlbeck and I dive into Dimension 4: Activating Hard Thinking, with a focus on Element 2: Explaining from the Model for Great Teaching this time with a special guest!


Great teaching hinges on the ability to present and communicate ideas clearly and in ways that resonate with students. In this episode, we unpack what it means to deliver concise, engaging explanations that connect new learning to what students already know, making it accessible and meaningful.
