Building Thinking Classrooms for Secondary Math
|
|
If you are connected to any professional math groups or social media, you may have noticed Building Thinking Classrooms by Peter Liljedhal take learning networks by storm this past year. What is a thinking classroom? A thinking student is an engaged student, actively thinking of connections and solutions. Institutionally, the majority of our time with students has shifted to "non-thinking" tasks. In his nearly 2 decades of research on the matter, Dr. Liljedahl presents 14 teaching practices to enhance learning and create more "thinking" opportunities. This workshop will take a deep look at the Building Thinking Classrooms 14 teaching practices with optional future opportunities to stay connected around this work. All participants will receive a copy of the book.
