Simon Brooks has spent many years implementing the Cultures of Thinking framework in classroom contexts. He's worked closely with Ron Ritchhart and the Cultures of Thinking team at Harvard University's Project Zero. He now spends a great deal of his time helping teachers and schools implement Cultures of Thinking both at the individual level, and school wide. This kind of change often uses words and phrases like 'new' and 'transformation' or 'forces that shape culture'. Whilst these terms might represent a scary unknown, or just another thing to add to the list, Simon's passion to see children really learn helps him communicate that it's not just another program for implementation, but a long term process that is well worth the time and effort. I caught up with Simon to find out how he starts the conversation with schools and their teachers.
