  • The Instructional Core That Powers THINKING PRO

    broken image

    At the heart of every THINKING PRO version is an adaptive video suite — 20 interactive instructional videos that help your students read, think, and write with clarity and confidence.

    Each video adjusts to their skill level and learning pace, delivering real-time feedback and personalized practice that drives measurable growth.

  • What Makes the Core Framework Different?

    Skill-Based, Student-Paced Learning

    Each video teaches one essential reading or thinking strategy—introduced with clarity, modeled using real-world texts, and practiced through structured, interactive tasks.

    Metacognitive Design

    Students learn what the strategy is, how it works, and why it matters—developing deep cognitive awareness and transferable skills for academic success.

    Pedagogical Agents

    Guided by young, diverse professionals, each video features an instructional guide who models expert strategies with clarity and approachability—building trust across high school and college-age learners.

    Adaptive Practice

    Each video includes formative tasks with branching pathways:

    • The Practice Track challenges proficient learners with randomized prompts and light-touch guidance
    • The Scaffolding Track supports developing learners with guided explanation and structured cues

    Proficiency Ratings

    At the end of every video, students receive a visual proficiency rating—Not Yet Proficient, Proficient, or Above Proficient—regardless of which track they followed. Each video can be revisited up to three times to support growth and mastery over time:

    • Reinforce high-quality skill instruction with consistent, expert-modeled videos:
    • Free up class time to focus on writing feedback, mentoring, and source-based instruction
    • Monitor progress using visual proficiency tracking and built-in formative assessments
  • Skill Coverage
