I'll be live tweeting the next #NARST2019 session: Something Like a Phenomena. Excited to hear about the different ideas on phenomena from the papers!

First up, Kristen Bergsman shares work on designing phenomena for high school biology classrooms. #NARST2019

Research questions around selecting phenomena. Love the focus of processes! #NARST2019

The process for designing phenomena through design-based research NARST2019

Criteria for selecting phenomena #NARST2019

And finally, 5 big take-aways

Next up, @bpenuel and @abeslo sharing work about phenomena in an assessment context #NARST2019

@bpenuel @abeslo @bpenuel: the current study focuses on 2 @STEMTeachTools on integrating science practices and cross cutting concepts into assessment (STT 41 and 30) #NARST2019

Design criteria for tasks around asking questions #NARST2019

@abeslo: study examines the extend to which the PD contributes to teachers' use of assessments. #NARST2019

@abeslo @abeslo: Rubric for the assessments looks at the scenarios used, as well as the use of DCIs, SEPs, CCCs, and 3D integration. #NARST2019

@abeslo @abeslo: Modest gains in the assessment rubric scores before and after the PD. Highest gains in the scenario rubric for both PD groups. This aligns with the PD focus on scenarios. #NARST2019

@abeslo @abeslo teachers recognized the value of the @STEMTeachTools and PD added additional value to help them better understand and get feedback on the design of 3D science assessment tasks. #NARST2019

@abeslo @STEMTeachTools @abeslo: When teachers include a performance expectation in designing their assessment tasks helped the tasks become more aligned with NGSS. #NARST2019

@abeslo @STEMTeachTools @abeslo Performance expectations provide a MODEL for teachers about how the 3 dimensions could work together for science assessment tasks. #NARST2019

@abeslo @STEMTeachTools And now, Jason Buell shares work about phenomena used at the intersection of curriculum and assessment #NARST2019

@abeslo @STEMTeachTools Curriculum embedded formative assessments provide a way to look at the critical "joints" of curriculum and assessment #NARST2019

@abeslo @STEMTeachTools Jason Buell is working collaboratively with teachers to design formative assessment with high school teachers on modeling energy flow. #NARST2019

Emerging framework for looking at how teachers use phenomena in formative assessment in science #NARST2019
