When students have learned something deeply\, they retain information\, achieve conceptual understanding\, and can transfer their learning to new situations. However\, deep learning doesn’t occur on its own as a result of didactic teaching; rather\, it requires the active mental manipulation of content using higher-order thinking skills. \nDuring this two-part webinar series\, McTighe and Silver will explore a set of important questions: \n\nWhat is deeper learning and why is it important?\nHow does deep learning occur?\nWhat’s worth learning deeply?\nHow should curriculum be framed to promote deeper learning?\nWhat kinds of instruction will help students learn deeply?\n\nThe authors will also present a set of practical and proven instructional tools and strategies to help students make meaning\, build deep understanding and transfer their learning from school into the world beyond. \nLearn More URL:https://thoughtfulclassroom.com/event/teaching-for-deeper-learning-tools-to-engage-students-in-meaning-making-ascd-virtual-author-workshop-2/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Online Training END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230929 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230930 DTSTAMP:20260407T051047 CREATED:20230928T191129Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230928T213350Z UID:12551-1695945600-1696031999@thoughtfulclassroom.com SUMMARY:KEYNOTE: Executive Function: The Key to Reading for Meaning DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, September 29th\, the Mississippi Chapter of ALTA welcomes as keynote speaker\, Dr. Harvey Silver\, renowned educator\, author\, and coach\, providing a two-part presentation on “Executive Function: The Key to Reading for Meaning.” \n \n LEARN MORE / REGISTER URL:https://thoughtfulclassroom.com/event/keynote-executive-function-the-key-to-reading-for-meaning/ LOCATION:2023 Dyslexia Therapy Conference – Mississippi College (Canton\, MS) CATEGORIES:Conferences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Kentucky/Louisville:20230717T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Kentucky/Louisville:20230717T150000 DTSTAMP:20260407T051047 CREATED:20230308T162409Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230703T153009Z UID:11634-1689584400-1689606000@thoughtfulclassroom.com SUMMARY:2023 Kentucky Deeper Learning Conference – ONE DAY ONLY!
