    Virtual-Icon Increasing Participation in Groupwork
    7:30PM–9:00PM ET Free

    What was groupwork like for you when you were a student? Do you want it to look similar or different? Are you enthusiastic about the idea of your students working in groups?In this workshop, teachers will learn how to leverage groupwork to provide students with more learning opportunities. Teachers will gain insights into productive groupwork while reflecting on their current groupwork practices. Facilitated by experienced teachers, participants will leave with small, practical changes that can be implemented to make groupwork structures more productive for all students.

    Virtual-Icon Engineer-ize your Science Labs
    7:30PM – 9:00PM ET Free Zoom

    Let your existing science labs take center stage in engineering design challenges! Together we will unpack the engineering design process and map science practices and common classroom activities onto that process, and we’ll identify multiple points where your well-tested science labs can facilitate student-centered engineering design. You’ll leave with student-facing tools and a fuller sense of how to integrate engineering into your science classes.

    Virtual-Icon Mathematical Thinking to Deepen Physics Understanding
    7:30PM – 9:00PM ET Free Zoom

    Exploring the Science Practice of Mathematical Thinking to Deepen Physics Understanding Anchored in a foundational “Patterns & Inquiry” unit, the Patterns Approach to physics engages students in the work of scientists, including generating research questions, designing experiments, collecting data, identifying patterns, and using those patterns to successfully predict future data points. In this workshop, teachers will gain an overview of the Patterns Approach to physics, experience a Patterns-type lesson, and discuss how the Patterns Approach could be implemented in their classroom.

    Virtual-Icon Project-Based Learning Basics
    7:30–9:00PM ET Free Zoom

    Understanding math and science enables citizens to make critical, informed decisions that support individual wellbeing and civic participation. We see project-based learning (PBL) as a highly effective way to address these challenges. In order to harness the potential of these courses to improve the lives of all students, teachers need specialized support in leveraging PBL in math and science. Come learn with us about some of the basics of PBL, such as entry events, end products, checkpoints, and other core components. Walk away with the next steps to begin implementing PBL in your class.
