A blogger-friend told me recently that most of his top blogs have numbers in them: 10 ways to do this; 10 ideas for that; 7 tools for making life easy – that kind of thing. Why? I guess it’s because we want our online material to be easy to dip into; we want the complexity of life made simple. We’re attracted to blogs that offer that possibility.
I’ve had a look at my own blog stats and, sure enough, the lists often do well. Here’s a collection of blogs or blog collections that fit the brief:
Behaviour Management: A Bill Rogers Top 10
10 Silver Arrows: Ideas to penetrate the armour of ingrained practice
10 teaching techniques to practise deliberately
10 Must-read books for better teaching
10 Provocations: An interactive session with @PeterHyman21
12 Steps to a ‘Great Teacher’ Reputation
12 Principles of Effective Teaching
As a bonus, here is a list of the Top 10 blogs about teaching that do not have numbers in them; they’ve all had over 20,000 views.
Great Lessons 4:Differentiation
Homework: What does the Hattie research actually say?
Contemporary ideas all my staff should know about.
Lessons from Berger: Austins’ butterfly and not accepting mediocrity
Marking in Perspective: selective, formative, effective, reflective
Dealing with day-to-day differentiation
Homework matters: great teachers set great homework
The Pedagogy Postcard series all in one place.
