Part 4 of 8: Cultures of Thinking is an educational framework that emerged from the work of Ron Ritchhart and the Project Zero team at Harvard University. This episode belongs to an 8 part series, where I delve into each of the 8 cultural forces that, according to Ron Ritchhart, we must master in order to truly transform our schools. My guest in the series is Simon Brooks, who spent years implementing cultures of thinking into his classrooms, and now helps teachers introduce the framework in their schools. In this series, we'll take a closer look at each of the 8 cultural forces, with an emphasis on practical ways to implement the theory behind it all. This is part 4, where we discuss the cultural force of modelling.
