THINKING PRO Version
One powerful enrichment framework. Three flexible versions.
A Shared Core That Builds Real-World Thinking
Every version of THINKING PRO is powered by the Interactive Video Suite — a research-based, adaptive instructional engine that teaches students to read, think, and write with clarity and confidence.
The 20 interactive videos model key strategies, adjust to ability level and learning pace, provide instant feedback, and track proficiency scores.
Match the Right Version to Your Teaching Context
Each version of THINKING PRO is designed with a different instructional use in mind. All are grounded in the same evidence-based pedagogy—but vary in structure, scope, and support. Whether you’re integrating enrichment into existing lessons, replacing a unit, or addressing foundational skill gaps, THINKING PRO offers a version that fits.
Each version is available as a flexible membership license — easy to implement, simple to scale.

THINKING PRO | Short Curriculum Unit
✅ Best Fit
Designed for teachers replacing a traditional 5–6 week unit with a structured, high-engagement experience focused on deeper thinking. Ideal for ELA or Social Studies classrooms looking to build analytical reasoning, document analysis, and academic writing through real-world content.
🔧 How It Works
Teachers guide students through a multi-part unit that blends critical thinking videos with structured class activities. Students explore a real-world issue of their choice, analyze multiple perspectives, and apply their learning in both writing and presentation.
The unit culminates in a capstone project, where students synthesize their thinking in a document-based essay and oral presentation, using news articles they’ve selected, annotated, and evaluated throughout the unit.
📦 What’s Included
- 13 instructional videos (8 critical thinking + 5 advanced critical thinking)
- Group discussions, source analysis, and structured writing tasks
- Capstone project rooted in multiple document analysis
- Optional extension activities to enrich or differentiate
- Flexible pacing: 5–6 weeks or extend to 10–12 weeks
- Adjustable rigor: modify essay length, number of sources, and topic scope to align with grade level, unit goals, or course standards
🧑🏫 Teacher Training & Support
- Includes up to 4 hours of live virtual training and on-demand videos
- 1:1 Coaching is available as an add-on to support implementation and growth
- CEUs (via Kent State University) and teacher certificate are based on completion of coaching and classroom implementation
- Tech support available
💰 Purchase & Funding

🏫 Use Case Examples
- Challenge honors ELA students with deeper writing practice and structured feedback
