New article: Exploring science teachers' efforts to frame phenomena in the community

Community-oriented framing is a pedagogical approach for organizing science instruction around local issues and helping students understand science as relevant to their community and themselves.

[Michael W. Moses II, PhD @MichaelWMosesII]

As I review conference proposals and journal articles, I can’t help but think that we’ve been socialized to do things—collect data, etc.—but few have been encouraged to think deeply about our work’s importance and significance—what is it doing? What might readers learn from it?

[UCIEducation @UCIEducation]

#UCIEducation is launching its first university-assisted partnership with @SantaAnaUSD at James Monroe Elementary! This groundbreaking collab will enhance learning, boost community engagement, & create new opportunities for students & teachers alike.

And a scientific attitude is the willingness to change your mind in light of new evidence.

Michelle Obama: Who is going to tell him the job he is currently seeking might just be one of those black jobs?

[Symone Gyles, PhD @symonegyles]

I obviously did not take anything from reading @dmoralesdoyle’s book 😂. On a serious note, what a great book that articulates the vision for justice-centered science education and the ways we can make it a reality. If you haven’t read it yet, you should!

@EliannyEdwards Congrats, Elianny!!
