OVERVIEW
The VT Conference is an opportunity for teachers and administrators currently engaged with the ideas associated with Visible Thinking, a Culture of Thinking, and Artful Thinking to come to together to share their ongoing efforts, insights, questions, and struggles in a collaborative setting.
The principle goals of the conference are to:
- Share examples of VT and the use of routines across sites and settings.
- Explore the cultural forces of language, environment, routines, time, expectations, opportunities, relationships, and modeling as leverage points for creating a culture of thinking.
- Discuss strategies for collecting evidence of change and progress at student, teacher, and school levels.
- Identify needed support mechanisms for teachers, administrators, and schools interested in deepening this work.
- Learn effective practices from other teachers and administrators.
- Share research findings and current Project Zero work on VT.
- Establish individual, school, and group goals for the future of VT.
- Build lasting relationships across sites.
