Tune in as Erin McCool from @CarolinaBio discusses using phenomena to make science meaningful. Departing from traditional teaching models, educators are now facilitators of learning experiences rather than conveyors of knowledge. https://t.co/JLFRRXz0mA

We have been talking a lot about assessment in professional learning over the last few months! Great opportunity to contribute to the development of a helpful resource.
We’re recruiting Ts to pilot test assessments in April/May. The tasks of this study are being designed to assess Ss’ opportunity to engage w/ science + engineering practices, CCCs, & disciplinary core ideas to figure out real-world phenomena. Learn more: https://t.co/a3QGrKmiKB

❤️this approach to weave climate into daily learning. Environmental education needs to be personally relevant to students. How are you incorporating personally relevant stories and context within your environmental learning experiences?

The idea is to help students connect what they’re learning to their culture and community.

What a beautiful day to learn outside! The @MCIULearns EMU recently met up with 6th graders at Jenkintown Middle School to explore Jenkintown Creek. We mapped the area, collected water and soil samples, and identified macroinvertebrates. #EMU #STEELS @PADeptofEd @jsddrakes
