How can schools remain relevant in a digital world? This is a question Garfield Gini-Newman has been asking and looks to answer, based on his work and research around developing critical thinking skills with students. He argues that schools must inspire wonder and help students develop the intellectual tools for deep learning with suggestions on how educators can bring this about to prepare our students for an undefined future. Garfield Gini-Newman is an associate professor at OISE/University of Toronto and the senior national consultant with The Critical Thinking Consortium. He has worked with thousands of teachers across grades and subjects, helping them to frame learning around engaging and provocative activities and authentic assessments. Requests for Garfield’s services have taken him from Asia to the Middle East, Europe, the Caribbean and across North America. His interest in effective teaching and learning has led him to actively explore the challenges and opportunities presented by teaching and learning in the digital age. Garfield has spoken across Canada and internationally on critical thinking, brain compatible classrooms, curriculum design and effective assessment practice, and nurturing 21st century skills in a digital world. His most recent book co-authored with Roland Case, Creating Thinking Classrooms, has received widespread praise from leading educators.
