An introduction to thinking routines based on the research from Project Zero at Harvard University. Looks closely at the Headlines routine and CSI thinking routine. Highlights a suggested action plan for interested teachers.
This is an overview of the Visible Thinking approach developed by Project Zero at Harvard University. It includes the main features of the theory and photos and videos of class observations I conducted at the BIltmore School in Florida, US.

Visible thinking aims to make thinking or cognitive processes as overt, conscious, and deliberate acts for learners. Visible Thinking routines help learners to be aware of their thinking processes, what they are thinking, and to make these concrete or tangible. It helps students to articulate their ideas in a more thoughtful and reflective manner.

Module 9: Ethnography
The ethnographic approach offers a unique research space to better understand context (political, social, institutional, and historical) of health policies and policy formulation; and how these policies are translated and come alive in health systems. This approach lends itself well for a nuanced analysis of the relationships between power, knowledge and practice in health systems. In this module the (a) roots of ethnographic approach, (b) distinguishing ethnography per se from qualitative research; (c) ethnographic approach and health systems as social institutions & (d) ethical issues and rigour are explored.
There are 4 slideshows in this module.

KEYSTONE is a collective initiative of several Indian health policy and systems research (HPSR) organizations to strengthen national capacity in HPSR towards addressing critical needs of health systems and policy development. KEYSTONE is convened by the Public Health Foundation of India in its role as Nodal Institute of the Alliance for Health Policy and Systems Research (AHPSR).
The inaugural KEYSTONE short course was conducted in New Delhi from 23 February – 5 March 2015. In the process of delivering the inaugural course, a suite of teaching and learning materials were developed under Creative Commons license, and are being made available as open access resources. The KEYSTONE teaching and learning resources include 38 videos and 32 slide presentations organized into 13 modules. These materials cover foundational concepts, common approaches used in HPSR, and guidance for preparing a research plan.
These resources were created and are made available through support and funding from the Alliance for Health Policy & Systems Research (AHPSR), WHO for the KEYSTONE initiative.

Importance of infusing critical thinking in educational programs for cultural adaptation of emigrants
3 Hour Session Delivered to Summer Cohort at Klingenstein Center. As leaders of our institutions, we need to have strategic vision and global understanding to manage meaningful change. What demographic and philosophical changes make diversity and inclusion an imperative value added rather than a desired additive? What factors help us understand where the school is on the spectrum of exclusive clubs to inclusive organizations? How do we move our communities strategically at the pace that is right for the school? What are some best practices for getting the right people to the school and leveraging their talents? How do we sustain our positive growth over time? Discuss these questions and gather tools to help our schools become the leading edge of cultural competency, inclusion, and equity.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

7. “Cultures of Thinking are
places where a group’s
collective, as well as individual
thinking, is valued, visible, and
actively promoted, as part of
the ongoing experience of all
group members.”
(Ron Ritchhart)

group leader.
• The way time is allocated.

conversation are used.
• The interactions and
relationships that unfold.
• The expectations that
are communicated.
• The opportunities that
are created.

must be cultures of thinking for
teachers.”

28. Identify the type of thinking you
want to make routine in your
classroom.
What kinds of thinking are
important in your subject area?
What kinds of thinking will students
need to build understanding?

Adaptable across ages and across curriculum areas.
Give it a try.
Make sure you introduce each routine as a thinking tool and not as an activity. For example “Our goal today is to deepen our understanding of the text we read yesterday. To help us accomplish that, we are going to use the 4C’s (connect, challenge, concepts, changes) to structure our discussion”.
Teacher Reflection - Then reflect on the routine as a piece of instruction: Did it help you to engage students with the content? Did it help you structure the lesson and engage students? What felt right for you, and where did you struggle?
Student Reflection – Have students reflect on the thinking routines as tools. For instance, say to them, “we used the 4Cs as a structure for discussion and to help deepen our understanding. How do you feel that went? Did it make discussion more productive and focused? DO you feel you are coming away with a better understanding? What should we try to work on improving the next time we use this routine?
