This workshop will use authentic phenomena to focus on the best practices of science instruction including; modeling instruction, argument-driven inquiry, phenomenon-based instruction, and the science and engineering practices contained in the Arkansas K-12 Science Standards. Special consideration will be given to the cross-cutting concepts as both a thematic and a practical lens to drive scientific inquiry. Participants will engage in scientific inquiry that is guided by authentic assessments and best practices. Come and experience this form of 3-dimensional instruction with Paul Andersen as your guide.
