ITC Keynote Presentations
Promoting 21st Century skills.
ITC Publications, Australia’s leading advocates of Thinking Skills in the classroom, are respected presenters, both nationally and internationally.
Our innovative presentations, based on critical, creative and collaborative thinking, are in demand from a range of professional associations, teaching institutions and conference organisers.
Gerard Alford presented an action packed day of critical and constructive approaches to Critical Thinking introducing and using Higher Order Thinking in the primary classroom recently at Monash University. His presentation skills were superb and the one hour lecture and following 1.5 hour workshops left the student teachers desperately wanting more!
