In this session, participants will gain insights into the Odyssey of the Mind (OM) program and discover practical strategies for infusing critical, creative, and spontaneous thinking in the classroom. Odyssey of the Mind is designed to empower students to harness their innate creativity to tackle challenges and become adept problem-solvers. OM transforms the classroom experience, encouraging students to apply their learning in innovative ways and integrate their interests and passions to address unique, open-ended challenges.
