Event Description:

Enbrighten is a framework of evidence-based comprehension strategies that special and general educators can use together in a co-teaching model to develop student engagement, critical thinking, listening and speaking skills in a collaborative culture of thinking. As featured in Ron Ritchhart’s latest book, Creating Cultures of Thinking, Enbrighten offers a framework for scaffolding student interaction and dialogue in any classroom environment. This 4-part series is designed so that participants learn about and practice using the Enbrighten scaffolding tools together, return to school and try them with students, and then come back together as a group to reflect on, share and innovate their own implementation.

Speech-Language Pathologists and Educators who support students with IEPs who wish to engineer effective discussions and develop the comprehension and communication skills of their students using a variety of media and text in a culture of thinking or individuals who support students with IEPs who have communication needs. School building teams of 2 or more are encouraged; Individuals are welcome and will be connected with a support team during the series.
