About the talk

Distilling key learnings from educational thinkers and leaders like Wiggins and McTighe and Lynn Erickson, Chris sets you up to understand and reflect on how you’re teaching concepts to your students and lays opportunities to further it. Through the lens of concepts you might already be teaching in your own classroom, this webinar is full of new ideas and opportunities that will help you continually apply what you’re learning.
