Increasingly, we are recognizing the importance of the culture of the classroom as foundational for learning. And yet, we often don’t give teachers many tools for or understanding of how to create group culture that can foster deep learning and build understanding. During the workshop, we will focus on the practical and concrete ways educators can create a culture of thinking in their schools and classrooms, foster the kinds of thinking opportunities that lead to deep understanding of content, and develop our skills of how to look for evidence of student thinking and understanding. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to explore the cultural forces of: interactions, modeling, environment, routines, language, opportunities, time, and expectations. Throughout the workshop, participants will use a variety of thinking routines to facilitate their own learning and explore how each of these can be used to create more thoughtful classrooms.

Workshops will take place as four separate 2-hour interactive sessions with Ron over 4 days. These will be 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th February 2021. Times are PST 8:00 am | MST 9:00 am | EST 11:00 pm | London 4:00 pm | Zurich 5:00 pm | Dubai 8:00 pm | India 9:30 pm
