Think Aloud with Dr. G.

Think Aloud is a strategy where teachers share their thinking out loud to model learning and understanding. It’s like eavesdropping on what’s happening in someone’s brain. This is a great way to start a conversation, learn something new, or think about things from different perspectives. I’m Dr. Lisa Goran and I’m inviting you to think aloud with me as we explore topics related to learning, education, and life.
