In this dynamic, hands-on workshop you will experience simple instructional strategies to engage and develop the 15 most fundamental thinking skills. Prepare your students for the information explosion with simple structures for categorizing, brainstorming, deducing, inducing, summarizing, shifting perspective, calculating, symbolizing, problem solving, predicting, synthesizing, and more. Adopt simple structures to develop each of these skills with no time away from your academic curriculum! Learn how to embed the thinking skills into how you teach, so every lesson becomes a thinking skills lesson. Improve academic engagement, retention, and achievement-but most importantly, prepare every student with thinking skills they will use for a lifetime! Transform your classroom into a think tank!
NOTE: Students must have already attended a Kagan workshop (within 1 year) or registered for the course with Kagan PRIOR TO registering for college credit through Fresno Pacific University.
