Geri Lorway
: I am the Director of Thinking101. I do not promote or support “discovery learning”. I promote and support teaching all learners how to think, how to reason and problem solve, how to comprehend and communicate both written and oral language, how to access the visual spatial power of the human brain to learn, recall and apply FACTS.
The basics that form the foundation for success with Readin’, Ritin’ and ‘Rithmetic all connect when we make learning to think and reason the focus with everything we teach.
My career in education spans more than 35 years over which I have taught in single and multi grade classrooms, served as a principal, a District Principal, a District Consultant, University Professor, action researcher, coach and mentor to thousands of teachers, parents and students across Western Canada.
I share an infectious energy & enthusiasm when I present or teach but make no mistake, my goal is to challenge every learner to master complex ideas and to achieve to his or her full potential. Changing the world, one mind at a time.
