We’re moving away from the traditional “banking model of education,” where the teacher is the keeper of all knowledge, to something

co-construction of learning.
Visible thinking routines like a Know-Wonder-Learn chart can transform a session from a monologue into a meaningful exchange. A roomful of different people with rich and varied perspectives will always be more valuable than just a single narrative.
