Thinking Protocols for Learning
"Everyone needs to know how to think, and it is difficult to find a teaching resource that provides practical strategies for teaching students how to nurture various thinking skills. Janelle Wills' Thinking Protocols for Learning fills this gap by providing a comprehensive guide on teaching thinking skills to students. A few of the skills covered in the book are critical thinking, creative thinking, and problem-solving, and there is also a chapter on metacognition, which provides a strong foundation for the thinking skills to be built on. All of this is presented in an accessible way, so teachers can quickly and efficiently implement the strategies into their classrooms. Teachers need to know how to teach thinking, and Thinking Protocols for Learning has made it easier than ever"--
Protocols in the Classroom
Author: David Allen
language: en
Publisher: Teachers College Press
Release Date: 2018-08-03
"Spinning off from The Power of Protocols, David Allen, Alan Dichter, Tina Blythe, and Terra Lynch seek to bring discussion protocols to the classroom for teachers to use with their high school students. Protocols in the Classroom will use the same dependable ideas that the authors developed during more than two decades of work for multiple editions of The Power of Protocols, which has provided an invaluable resource to teachers, administrators, and teacher educators to support their professional learning and development. The authors' proposed book extends beyond professional development for educators by bringing discussion protocols into the classroom while using vignettes and facilitation tips to further explain how educators can use protocols with students effectively. Protocols in the Classroom will feature descriptions of protocols that are familiar from the earlier books (e.g., the Last Word, the Tuning Protocols, the Consultancy) and new ones. Like the earlier books, it also includes guidelines for teachers in using the protocols effectively, as well as discussion of important considerations in using protocols with students, including the role of the teacher and students' preparation for participating in discussion protocols" --
Creating Cultures of Thinking
Discover why and how schools must become places where thinking is valued, visible, and actively promoted As educators, parents, and citizens, we must settle for nothing less than environments that bring out the best in people, take learning to the next level, allow for great discoveries, and propel both the individual and the group forward into a lifetime of learning. This is something all teachers want and all students deserve. In Creating Cultures of Thinking: The 8 Forces We Must Master to Truly Transform Our Schools, Ron Ritchhart, author of Making Thinking Visible, explains how creating a culture of thinking is more important to learning than any particular curriculum and he outlines how any school or teacher can accomplish this by leveraging 8 cultural forces: expectations, language, time, modeling, opportunities, routines, interactions, and environment. With the techniques and rich classroom vignettes throughout this book, Ritchhart shows that creating a culture of thinking is not about just adhering to a particular set of practices or a general expectation that people should be involved in thinking. A culture of thinking produces the feelings, energy, and even joy that can propel learning forward and motivate us to do what at times can be hard and challenging mental work.
