Fiber artist and retired Art Educator Christine Miller joins The Creativity Department in this episode to talk about supporting students through the process of building skills around thinking. Discover ways to guide students to better understand how they think, so they do it on a deeper, more meaningful level. Christine shares how she developed her practice, the hurdles her students overcame, and the long-term effects she witnessed from implementing metacognitive techniques. Listen in to hear more!
