‘Making Thinking Visible’ emerged from work at Harvard University called Project Zero, executed by Ron Ritchhart, Mark Church and Karin Morrison (2011).
The research-based project focused on shifting the balance in education from simple curriculum delivery to ensuring students understood what they were learning, and the type of thinking required to execute it.
Making Thinking Visible is a pedagogical approach that promotes the use of 21 Thinking Routines which places value on the time to think/ process rather than only celebrating the correct answer/end product.
“…have confidence in every learner’s ability to think and your capacity to nurture that thinking. The results will amaze and energise you.” (Ritchhart)
The Thinking Routines are split into three categories
