Synopsis

Ron Ritchhart's new book, Cultures of Thinking in Action, takes the next step in helping listeners not only understand how a culture of thinking looks and feels, but also how to create it for themselves and their learners. Arguing that no set of practices or techniques alone is sufficient to create a culture of thinking in and of itself, Ritchhart explores the underlying beliefs that motivate the creation of cultures of thinking, presenting key mindsets every educator and leader needs to embrace.

Much more than just an instructional guide, Cultures of Thinking in Action offers listeners a reflective journey into their own teaching, leading, and parenting while providing the foundation and concrete strategies needed to create and develop a culture of thinking for all learners. This book:

● Presents ten foundational mindsets of a culture of thinking

● Includes the latest research of the Cultures of Thinking Project

● Includes questions, exercises, and discussion prompts to inspire reflection by individuals and teams

● Provides case studies and best practice scenarios to exemplify each mindset

● Provides data collection tools to inform one's teaching practice

Goodreads review by Justin on May 16, 2024

A wonderful book on what the state of education should and could be. It’s a very dense book that is also practical in its discussion of what is needed to leverage high quality education in schools.......more

Goodreads review by Zoe on December 31, 2023

This is a book which I believe every educator and leader should read. It just makes so much sense and is an organising power factor for all we try to do in school. I'll be returning to the reflection questions in this book before we meet as a book circle.......more
