Are you or your colleagues just getting started with shifting your science instruction towards #NGSS? It can be difficult to know where to start! Here are my Top Ten STEM Teaching Tools that were transformative for my teaching and lesson design. Pls RT #ngsschat & #nstachat! 
Building on prior interest and identity in instruction supports deeper engagement and learning.

Despite their centrality in science and engineering, phenomena have traditionally been a missing piece inscience education, which too often has focused on teaching general knowledge that students can have difficulty applying to real world contexts.

Do we need to rethink how students should learn about energy in school? In our latest paper in #DISER we have started to take a closer look at that question. rdcu.be/cegKN
A thread on what we found and why it matters.

The core of the energy concept is really the idea that energy is a conserved quantity. However, students often struggle with that idea. This is maybe not surprising when we consider how often we hear things like energy consumption. #ClimateEmergency

Excited to share the web site for the CLIMATE & ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE IN EDUCATION grad seminar I'm teaching with @jnprezzo this term. We'll share readings, resources & ideas based on our inquiry. #UWClimateEd

The approach we are taking with the course is that of an interdisciplinary research group focused on education. We will collectively inquire, learn, imagine, design & share our thinking over the course of the term.
We invite you to follow along & join in through #UWClimateEd

The driving question of our shared inquiry will be:
How can we promote learning in order to create more just, thriving, and regenerative conditions for all Earthly beings, human and otherwise?
Together we will think across timescales, contexts for learning, and worldviews.

Hey #NGSSchat
If we played the (somewhat serious) game of nominating important science & engineering practices missing from the carefully chosen 8 in #NGSS / Framework, one I would quickly nominate is NOTICING.

NOTICING is an embodied & multi-sensorial practice. It is foundational to making sense of & shaping the natural-cultural world.
It supports wondering, pattern-seeking, systems theorizing, seeking relevancies, tending to relations, identifying political connections & the 8 SEPs.

NOTICING involves careful & often collaborative sensing in context — through looking, smelling, feeling, hearing & tasting. It is learned in embodied ways.
NOTICING feeds directly into the other science & engineering practices.
