What kinds of higher-order thinking skills will best support people to thrive in the world today? How might learning spaces and cultures be established to promote such forms of thinking among learners of all ages?
Making Thinking Routine is a research‐based method designed to enhance cognition in the classroom. It illuminates how teachers can deepen learning and ignite student curiosity and engagement.
It integrates flexible thinking into content instruction to deepen learning and develop students’ thinking skills and dispositions.
Making Thinking Routine has been developed in partnership with Independent Schools Victoria and Project Zero at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
