Welcome to Craft & Draft, where we explore the art of teaching and the science of learning. In today’s episode, hosts Pam Ochoa and Jacob Chastain continue their summer book study of “The Knowledge Gap” by Natalie Wexler.
Join them as they explore chapters eleven, twelve and the epilogue in section three, “How We Can Change: Creating and Delivering a Content-Focused Curriculum.” Jacob and Pam critique the argument Wexler proposes regarding writing instruction and her conclusion.  
Pam discusses Wexler’s juxtaposition of two forms of writing instruction: Judith Hochman’s “Writing Revolution” and Lucy Calkins’ “Writer’s Workshop.”  Jacob explains her final arguments regarding “The Knowledge Gap” and how her solutions may or may not work.
