How do teachers move beyond the facts to the rigorous cognitive reasoning required on STAAR and necessary for life in the 21st century? Lynn Erickson offers concept-based learning as the path. Erickson-certified presenter/trainer Kathy Riggle will explain Erickson’s “Structure of Knowledge” and demonstrate how teaching conceptually engages students in higher level thinking, enabling transfer of learning. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of concept-based learning and digital class tools to begin this challenging and rewarding journey.
