GRADE LEVEL
In a world overflowing with information, teaching students what to think is no longer enough—we must teach them how to think. This course empowers educators to embed critical thinking into science instruction through research-based strategies like “thinking moves,” scientific argumentation, reflective routines, and real-world problem solving. Participants will explore practical ways to promote reasoning, metacognition, and intellectual risk-taking in their students, while also discovering how to collaborate across content areas to make critical thinking a powerful, school-wide priority. Whether you're new to critical thinking or ready to deepen your practice, this course offers tools you can apply immediately so students become more curious, analytical, and engaged learners.
