Turn to Tech for Seamless Science Routines

Lab In Every Lesson

Integrating *the right edtech tools* into your middle school or high school science curriculum and instruction -- everyday lesson plans for science -- can make active learning a realistic routine, enhance student-centered culture in your classroom, and make students' thinking visible by providing a means to collect regular, reliable evidence of learning.

In this episode, I'll share exactly what I mean when I say "TRADE YOUR TALK FOR TECH"! And, I'm not limiting this discussion to designing inquiry-based lesson plans for science ... together, we'll consider the role of edtech in every aspect of teaching science:

💥BEFORE instruction (planning lessons)
💥DURING instruction (delivering lessons)
💥AFTER instruction (providing feedback and analyzing outcomes)

This video has three distinct parts:

✅🧑‍💻⛔ In Part 1, I present the pros and cons of teaching with technology and its unique role as a facilitator of guided inquiry and instructional design.

📝 In Part 2, I'll demonstrate my process for sourcing free science simulations online to develop guided inquiry activities.

🎓 In Part 3, I'll show you around the edtech products, SeeSaw and BookWidgets. These are critical components of my student-centered system for teaching science as a practice! You'll get a sneak peek at the backend of these tools while I share soooo many best practices to help you realize their potential for transforming your workflow as you show up to serve every student everyday. 💯
