​Topic: Thinking about thinking

​Kids are rarely taught how to practice critical thinking. And we know that learning to think critically is one of the most important skills that today’s children need to succeed in this chaotic and uncertain world.

​Being able to memorize and repeat facts just isn't enough. Kids need to be critical thinkers who can make sense of information, make inferences, and effectively collaborate with others.

​A few of the things we'll discuss:

  • ​The Synthesis community

  • ​How to help kids ask better questions

  • ​Specific tactics to facilitate critical thinking

  • ​Our BIG announcement
