Join Dr. Peter Liljedahl, author of Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, for an immersive deep-dive into the 14 practices that transform students from "mimickers" into "thinkers."
While rooted in mathematics, these practices have revolutionized student engagement across all content areas by shifting the classroom environment to support active collaborative problem-solving.
You Will Experience:
The 14 Practices: Move beyond the theory to experience the research-backed strategies for de-fronting the room, using vertical non-permanent surfaces (VNPS), and fostering autonomous learners.
The "Flow" State: Learn how to design tasks that keep students in the Zone of Proximal Development, while balancing challenge and skill to eliminate boredom and frustration.
Data-Driven Success: Explore the 15 years of research that proves why these shifts lead to higher achievement and more equitable classroom cultures.
