Displays and Distractions in the Classroom with Dr Karrie Godwin

<p>A couple of years ago I saw a tweet asking if the fashion for hessian backing on display boards was based on any evidence.  It turns out no one has researched this but Dr Karrie Godwin researches (amongst other things) the impact of classroom displays on off-task behaviour and learning. In this podcast we talk about just how distracting displays can be to learning and what the perfect classroom might just look like.  You can find out more about Karrie <a href= "https://psychology.umbc.edu/corefaculty/karrie-godwin-ph-d/">here</a> and her work on her <a href= "https://www.childdevelopmentlabgodwin.com/">website here</a>.</p>
