Most educators want students to be strong thinkers and problem-solvers; and to be empowered to use their learning beyond the school walls. But applying what we’ve learned to new contexts – also known as learning transfer – can be incredibly difficult to achieve. Nearly all learners, young and old, struggle with learning transfer. Do you want to help students become more conscious of their thinking and increase their ability to unlock complex situations? Join us for this cutting-edge webinar that will help you to promote depth and breadth of understanding by using learning transfer as both a means and an end goal of learning.

Join us for an engaging, interactive session to get new ideas about how CRT can become an integral part of your practice no matter what your instructional model looks like this year.

To capitalize on the potential impact of teacher clarity on student learning, we must develop and share high-quality success criteria that define what success looks like for each and every learner in our schools and classrooms.

We’ll also explore how teacher clarity ensures teaching that is organized and intentional with transparent expectations.
