Think Smarter: Using Brain Research to Foster Student Thinking (Part 1)
Monday October 28, 2024 9:00am - 3:00pm EDT
Part 1 of this 3 part series: "Traditional" Teaching - The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly!

In this session, we will explore what we know about how people learn to rethink how we teach. Whether you’re a new teacher, or have taught for 20 years, this workshop will challenge what we know about teaching and learning so that we can foster student thinking and deeper learning. You’ll leave with ideas you can apply in your classroom the very next day!

Participants will also have a chance to win the book, Neuroteach: Brain Science & the Future of Education, which is foundational to this series.
