Thinking With Things

This is a group of lessons and curricular resources to support and inspire "thinking with things" in higher education. All learners are "embodied" learners--thinking with their hands, their bodies, and their immediate environments, not just the contents of their skulls. Group creator Sarah Kuhn's book, "Transforming Learning Through Tangible Instruction: The Case for Thinking with Things," provides the "WHY" for a different approach to teaching. This resource bank assists with the "HOW." Welcome, and we hope you will help grow our community! For more, see https://www.thinkingwiththings.com/.
