Link to Yoram notesHis latest book Teaching and Learning in a Community of Thinking: The Third Model, (published by Springer), explores The Third Model – a pedagogical model, which places the encounter between the child and the curriculum at the centre of educational theory and practice. The Third Model is implemented in an alternative classroom called The Community of Thinking. This framework is currently implemented in schools in Israel, England, Australia and New Zealand. He made us reflect and think about how children and we think!
