The Importance of Knowledge of the Game and Knowledge in the Game

In this episode I’m delighted to welcome back teacher, teaching mentor and bestselling author, Doug Lemov to the show.  

Doug studies high performing teachers and what it is they do that makes them so effective in the classroom.

Back in episode 120 Doug came on the show to talk about his brilliant book “The Coach’s Guide to Teaching” in which he brings his considerable knowledge about the science of classroom teaching to the sports coaching world to create championship calibre coaches on the court and field. In this episode Doug is back to speak about the book a little over a year since its release, the question’s that have arisen from the book and his recent thoughts on some of the topics he introduced in the book.
