Thinking routines are an essential part of the Visible Thinking in the Museum method and my core course, Visible Thinking in the Museum Online (VTMO).

They have been a magical ingredient in helping me to confidently create engaging discussions around objects and artworks over the past 10 years.

They’ve also been a great way to engage audiences to get them really interested in art and objects, making them curious and asking questions and, of course, getting them thinking. 

But what are thinking routines and how can you use them? And where does the magic happen? That’s what we’re discovering in episode 3!
