Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: Leading for and through enquiry. School leaders can make or break enquiry communities in regard the support and space offered to enquirers they work with, and in regard how model our own processes of finding out/1🧵

And the sun sets on another #StrathEdD MELS day. Lots of interesting chat about being active in the reading and writing process and input into what makes good systematic review questions. Lovely to see some of last year’s cohort sharing their experiences 👏👏 @strath-ioe.bsky.social

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: line of enquiry. The questioning you've been pondering is important as it is the hook on which the line of your enquiry hangs. It will give clues of sample, the method etc. it will also indicate where the gaps are/1🧵

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: no prizes for size. There's a temptation in research to think big is better - big samples over a long time with lots of data sources - but this isn't what quality derives from. Rather focus on targeting need/1🧵

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: to guide or not to guide. As a leader of enquiry communities and a coach to many teachers engaged in enquiry, I constantly grapple with how much guidance to give. Should I be telling teachers what to do?/1 🧵
