About the Session
Join NSTA and middle school educators from across the country to delve into using OpenSciEd instructional materials to hand over to your students the joyful responsibility of thinking, talking and acting like scientists to deeply learn science. You’ll experience science learning in an OpenSciEd unit from both student and teacher perspectives with emphasis on specific teacher moves and strategies that will support your continuing shift toward student-driven science learning.
In addition, the NSTA professional learning team will help you tailor a professional learning path forward for additional support in implementing OpenSciEd curriculum and helping all of your students build confidence as the knowers in your classroom.
This session is for those newer to OpenSciEd and investigating the middle school curriculum for classroom, school, or district implementation.
Takeaways:
- Experience how OpenSciEd curriculum design engages and supports all students in learning science.
- Establish first steps in implementing OpenSciEd curriculum in your classroom, school or district.
