One of the aspects of the shifts in educational direction and strategy cased by the pandemics, is the need for all to be more circumspect and develop deeper critical thinking skills.
Without 'looking outside the box' we are doomed to repeatedly rely on the known when the current situation may require new ways of doing and being.
Alan Hoskin introduced our educational developer team to the thinking routines toolbox developed by Harvard's Project Zero. These thinking routines arise from a series of projects run through the Harvard Graduate School of Education for sharing with the wider educational community.
Although many of the projects are focused on school contexts, the learning from the many projects are applicable across all educational sectors. The entire website is always worth a look through for updated resources.
