Touchstones Announces an Open-Enrollment Workshop for Educators: November 6, 2010 at the Touchstones offices in Annapolis, MD.
The open-enrollment workshop introduces teachers to the Touchstones discussion method, which pairs thought-provoking readings and activities with classroom management expertise to build a stimulating and respectful environment for the exchange of ideas and the building of critical thinking and collaborative leadership skills. Touchstones transforms students from passive learners to fully engaged thinkers.
Through Touchstones' structured group inquiry and process evaluation, students build new habits of mind that engender genuine exploration, self-examination and appreciation for diverse perspectives. Touchstones also helps students learn the value of owning their education, as they begin to work together and with the teacher to establish a respectful and inclusive educational environment.
