Transform the math classroom into a “thinking classroom” and discover a new avenue for critical thinking and collaborative learning for all students. This webinar showed how to apply the principles from Peter Liljedahl’s book, Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, to teaching practices, whether the courses are in-person, hybrid, or fully online.
Peter Liljedahl defines a thinking classroom as "a classroom that is not only conducive to thinking but also occasions thinking, a space that is inhabited by thinking individuals as well as individuals thinking collectively, learning together, and constructing knowledge and understanding through activity and discussion."
Don’t miss an opportunity to explore how technology can empower you and other math educators to realize the objective of a "thinking classroom” at the institutional level by viewing this recording. Drawing on knowledge and experience gained from classroom instruction, educational research, and their use of math technology, the presenters discussed ways to engage students and enhance learning outcomes by using interactive activities that naturally foster collaboration, discussion, and effective practice.
