@caahayes How are teachers supporting kids to make claims with data in the midst of uncertainty? #nstachat

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes @CODAPdatasci is a great resource for distance learning though.

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes A4: It is challenging to engage students in creating their own data, although there are also new opportunities to have them create data about their home and daily life. #NSTAchat

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@chaddorsey That’s right. You have to actually select fruitful forms of complexity, like @eveimanz shows in her work

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@oceansofdata @racheljcox87 @ReneeRi10319668 I agree...given the right opportunity, kids can think in really clever ways with data

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes So they can have assessable forms of variation to make sense of (2/2) #NSTAchat

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes A3: I think it’s important to consider what you are trying to make accessible. I’ve been working to help make issues related to modeling variation more accessible...which means I’m usually changing lessons to make the data MORE messy....(1/2) #NSTAchat

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@chaddorsey Yeah...when you use data in authentic ways you don’t know where the story will go!!

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@oceansofdata @caahayes So true! My team is working on this problem in middle grades and it is a really challenging problem!

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes A2: Increasingly sophisticated mathematics that is necessary for modeling data is a challenge in science class...because there are rarely resources to help math and science teachers coordinate students’ learning opportunities. #NSTAchat

@veenav @caahayes @nyu @PennGSE_VOLT Hi Vienna, glad to have you in the chat!

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@racheljcox87 @caahayes Thanks for joining!

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes A1: Recently, I’ve been using 3D printed specimens of organisms, such as sea sponges, with @asgrinath so students can experience challenges associated with measurement variability as they work to quantify sponge “abundance” in marine ecosystems #NSTAchat

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@caahayes And I should have said...I go by Seth!

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

I’m an assistant professor at Middle Tennessee State University in Math & Science Education. I’m excited to be a part of this conversation tonight!

Tonight we discussing “Data in the Science Classroom.” We welcome @nsonger @RyanSethJones @chaddorsey @PallantAmy @cfmatuk @oceansofdata @SuzanneDikker @veenav @KaylaDesPortes @uamatan @PeterJWoodsPhD #NSTAchat

@ilana_horn @bpenuel I'm so sorry to hear this, Lani! I hope you and your family are ok and have everything you need.

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

I think what @joelbezaire meant to say was that WE wrote this article, along with a graduate student at @MTSUGradStudies in our Math & Science Education PhD program

[Ryan Seth Jones @RyanSethJones]

@ilana_horn Yeah she's great. I hope the masks in your house are coming along...Jennifer has said it's a fairly tedious product, and that some materials are hard to find these days (elastic, and even bias tape)
