Unfortunately my impression is that we teach future teachers how students learn but not how teachers teach

Yes, that was my experience during my M.Ed. days. Now I think, half of the program should have been about the science and art of teaching.

Really insightful, teaching and learning work together: teachers give clear guidance like a personal trainer, tour guide, or IKEA manual and learners then piece together their own understanding. Seeing instruction and construction as partners, two side of same coins not rivals, moves us beyond endless debate toward crafting lessons that guide and empower at the same time.
