In the fast-paced digital age, the art of deep reading and the craft of evidence-based writing are more critical than ever for developing critical thinking skills in students. This POP PD + session will explore the symbiotic relationship between these two essential academic skills. We aim to equip educators with strategies to encourage students to engage deeply with texts and use their insights to support their written arguments effectively. This is a recording only that will be shared with all registrants at 7:30 AM to view at your convenience.
