Hi,
I'll be presenting on using Journeys or 'Useful, Relevant Interactive Reading Passages in Your Secondary Classroom'
Journeys are NGSS aligned middle and high school interactive reading passages integrating current scientist case studies, data analysis, graphing practice sets, engineering stories, citizen science opportunities. Students, as virtual researchers, embark on a thematic journey through reading, writing, and multimedia in each Journey. Through varied literacy strategies, they elaborate on their building knowledge, synthesizing scientific concepts from multiple strands, in order to describe scientific phenomena. Teachers, as facilitators for current science issues in their classroom, interact on an online platform to share ideas and engage students further on STEMJourneys.org, where science and education meet. Audience discussion about their own experiences in integrating real science for relevant learning will also be explored through facilitation.
I'd love to see you there March 30 in the afternoon and welcome!
