Description How can we push students past simple recall into deeper thought and engagement"Description How can we push students past simple recall into deeper thought and engagement? Is it about teaching content? Or should we be asking more questions? If so, what questions should we be asking? Do you think WE know?

Are you finding that healthy balance between tech and no tech, screens and no screens, online and offline? If not, then you came to the right place because … actually, we were going to ask YOU for ideas. So, I guess it’s the blind leading the blind… Lessons Learned Chris Nolan Ryan and Gaylord Perry Dennis – Do not disturb mode on your iPhone.
