The Scaffolding Effect: Hunting, not Fishing
Episode 84
Thursday, 18 December, 2025

Bringing 2025 to a close with one of our most important conversations! Tune in as we chat with educator-authors, Rachel Ball and Alex Fairlamb, on why we need to be hunters in our classrooms, searching for student understanding, instead of hoping and fishing for mastery. The Scaffolding Effect is one of the best professional development books we've ever read; truly scaffolding and chunking material down for all of us to understand. Happy year-end to all of our listeners!Rachel BallAlex Fairlamb Suzannah EvansShane Saeed
