@tetonscience Hi! Love your program, we bring kids every summer!l Can you help me with some ideas for a place based lesson for my HS genetics unit?

Ideas for place based lesson in HS genetics unit? #placebaseded

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to collaborate!

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes A9: I would ask myself "How is this CER lesson relevant to current issues in my students' life?" #NSTAChat

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@EdGCMProject Ooo yes I like this! Like Mythbusters!

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes A8: Observe a teacher who is already doing it in their classroom if possible. If not, reach out to them and see if you can bounce some ideas off each other. #NSTAChat

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

A7: This exactly! These are great tools. Andrew is a fellow CPS teacher and he has some awesome strategies and tools for this. #NSTAChat

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes A6: I am a big fan of culminating projects as summative assessment for this context. As mentioned in the article, in the vaping unit we took this approach and had awesome results and huge student buy-in. Specifically, they made causal maps! #NSTAChat

@caahayes A5: Socio-scientific issues provide fantastic buy-in for students. Good science teaching is all about making the learning both rigorous and RELEVANT to the student's own world.

@caahayes A4: After any investigation, students need opportunities to reflect on what they have done and why they did it that way, then to compare their own approach with that of others in the scientific community. #NSTAChat

@caahayes Students use their knowledge to develop the initial model. If we think of the development of the model within a claim, evidence, reasoning framework, then their model is doing all three.

@caahayes A2: 2/2 The two are connected by “reasoning”, which is known science facts or knowledge that explains the connection between evidence and claim. #NSTAchat

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes A2: 1/2 A scientific claim is a statement about a phenomena or event, while evidence is a trend or pattern from measurements and observations, collected during an investigation, that supports that claim... #NSTAchat

[Jordan Rockett @JRockettScience]

@caahayes A1: Judging the validity of a claim by analyzing the way data is used to support or refute that claim. This includes skills related to recognizing patterns of both logical fallacies and valid reasoning.
