Looking forward to #NSTA23! . Come say hi. and maybe discuss problem-driven learning too.
Effective science teaching and learning supports students to explain phenomena and to design solutions to problems. Join @JenniferEdu and @Neelosol at #NSTA23 in Atlanta to dig into what it can look like to drive instruction with engineering design problems.

We may not be spotlighted much in mainstream media, but this was a beautiful win for the people of #Iran. Please take a moment to listen to this song #WomenLifeFreedom #زن_زندگی_آزادی.
Absolutely incredible! #ShervinHajipour WINS Grammy Award in the category of “Best Song for Social Change” for “Baraye,” the anthem for the #IranRevolution. This is a huge victory for the courageous people of Iran and for #WomanLifeFreedom

It’s so hard to carry on with everyday life knowing the people of my motherland, my beautiful #Iran, are in pain and in fear of being murdered just for asking for the basics of freedom. We are your voice, we’re far away, but we hear you. #freeIran #MahsaAmini #thetimehascome

I recently realized how often I call my mom when I'm cooking a delicious #Persian dish to get her feedback. I couldn't help but to relate this to how often students need feedback in science learning. See my newest post in @nextgenscience's blog:

How can we use feedback to support student learning? By Neelo Soltanzadeh | December 8, 2021 I recently came across a recipe for "fesenjoon", a Persian staple at my family's Thanksgiving table.

It’s so good to be back in a lab again! The #onthefarmSTEM teams are wondering about all the different ways the female reproductive system affects cattle production in agriculture🤔

“When geography is studied. there is no mention of Palestine in the classroom. Curricular silence is not an attempt to remain neutral — it is an acceptance of the Western-dominated narrative that fills our social studies books in U.S. schools.” #PalestineBleedsWorldSleeps.
Given everything that's going on, I wanted to amplify this article from @RethinkSchools about the education a Palestinian American mother dreams of for her children in the U.S.

I couldn't have said it better myself! Connections to ELA and mathematics occur naturally in the science classroom.
