The Making Sense of Three-Dimensional Teaching and Learning workshop develops an understanding of the three-dimensions of science and engineering practices, disciplinary core ideas, and crosscutting concepts. Participants engage in professional learning using high-quality instructional materials paired with a powerful toolkit of resources to implement three-dimensional learning centered on phenomena/problems in the classroom. Facilitators model instructional strategies and use of curricular materials consistent with the innovations in A Framework for K–12 Science Education. Additionally, participants are introduced to the NSTA Sensemaking Tool and gain experience using the tool to support creating, revising and selecting high-quality science lessons.
This two-day session is presented by National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) faciliatators and is part of a national speaker series offered in partnership with Shell.
