UtSTA 2024: Out-Of-This-World Science Teaching

We want students to ask high quality questions that show deeper learning.  We want students to make and use scientific models to predict and explain phenomena.  But making this happen in the classroom can be very challenging.  And how does a teacher assess these skills? This hands-on, minds-on workshop will dive into how educators can incorporate these skills into instruction and what success looks like for asking questions and developing and using models. We will provide various strategies for teaching modeling and asking questions and rubrics for science skills.

HERE is the slidedeck.
