Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this full-day workshop introduces the core practices and research foundations of Building Thinking Classrooms. Participants will explore task design, classroom norms, and structures that support student thinking and engagement.

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this two-day workshop introduces the core practices and research foundations of Building Thinking Classrooms. Participants will explore task design, classroom norms, and structures that support student engagement, while gaining clear strategies for teaching large amounts of content effectively.

Featuring Kyle Webb, this full-day workshop introduces the core practices and research foundations of Building Thinking Classrooms. Participants will explore task design, classroom norms, and structures that support student thinking and engagement.

Featuring Kyle Webb, this full-day workshop builds on the foundations of Building Thinking Classrooms, guiding participants who have already begun implementation into deeper, more refined practice. Participants will dig deeper into the practices with special emphasis on thin-slicing and closing the lesson.

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this full-day introductory workshop focuses on subjects other than mathematics. Participants will explore how to transform their classrooms from spaces where students mimic to spaces where students think, learning what students and teachers do in a thinking classroom. 

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this full-day advanced workshop focuses on lesson design for subjects other than mathematics. Participants will engage in “thin-slicing” curricular topics and explore the principles necessary to design and create effective lessons for a thinking classroom.

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this full-day workshop introduces the 14 core teaching practices for enhancing learning in a thinking classroom. Participants will experience the outcomes of research into how teachers can transform their math classrooms to foster genuine student thinking and engagement.

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this full-day advanced workshop focuses on lesson design. Participants will engage in “thin-slicing” a curricular topic and explore the practical application, sequencing, and theoretical foundations of creating effective tasks for a thinking classroom.

Featuring Peter Liljedahl, this unique workshop involves designing a grade 9 or 10 math lesson collaboratively. Peter will then co-teach the lesson with a Dutch colleague, followed by a post-lesson reflection session and a Q&A. Intended for teachers who have previously attended a BTC training. Held at Openbaar Lyceum De Amersfoortse Berg.

Featuring Kyle Webb, this workshop examines assessment practices aligned with Building Thinking Classrooms, including formative assessment, reporting considerations, and tools that value student thinking.
