CANCELLED - Making Observations: Engage Students through Scientific Observation
Description
This session is designed to explore methods and activities that can strengthen student skills in making observations, which is a key practice in science. Making observations is the first way we collect data in order to interpret and make sense of phenomena. For our students, it’s a skill that can be learned and improved through thoughtful instruction in and out of the classroom. Spending time making careful observations also leads to engagement and emotional connections with the natural world. Teachers have found these tools transformative for their instructional practice, as it shifts the attention from the instructor onto student-student and student-nature interactions.
