Dan Fouts–current social studies teacher and co-founder of Teach Different— sat down with Drew Perkins of TeachThought to discuss the importance of critical thinking and inquiry, and how both can be employed to teach content in a more creative way.
The discussion highlighted Teach Different’s 3-step protocol which provides a framework for teachers and students to think deeply and ask big questions in the context of unforgettable classroom conversations. It’s culturally responsive teaching, equity and social-emotional learning all wrapped into one.
Throughout the episode, this example conversation on obedience was used to show how to teach Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail.
