How did this compare to your high school or college science education? Was school exciting for you? What made it interesting and exciting? Or what made it boring? What are the benefits and pitfalls to this style of teaching? What other styles of teaching are you interested in or would want to know more about? Slide 12 Structuring Inquiry in a Classroom 5E Model or 7E Model Elicit Find out what interests students or students make observations and ask questions Engage Create activities based on student interest that builds on what they know Explore Allow students to plan how to collect data and find information Explain Students organize data (compare, classify, explain, build explanations) Elaborate Students find a real world application for their findings Evaluate Students determine limits and authenticity for their findings Extend Students re-explore topic to better their understanding Slide 13 Problem How do we do this in 2hrs and 20 min? Elicit Engage Explore Explain Elaborate Evaluate Extend Slide 14 Problem How do we do this in 2hrs and 20 min? Elicit Engage Explore Explain Elaborate Evaluate Extend Slide 15 Antibiotics Lab Engage We use isopropyl alcohol to clean lab benches. On Pinterest, there are always pins on baking soda and vinegar for all-purpose cleaners. Do hand sanitizers really work? Does Ampicillin work? Explore How would we test this? Explain What did we find? Elaborate Conclusions. _____ killed more bacteria than ___ because ____. Evaluate We only tested on e. coli. How would this work on other bacteria. What if we took a swab of bacteria from our hands or a bunch of peoples hands? 1pm 3:20pm Slide 16 Antibiotics Lab Extend - Students and undergrads reflect on the lesson and teaching 3:20-3:50pm How would assessment work? What do teachers need to improve on? Do we need an evaluation form? What would it look like? Should you evaluate students? (i.e. Tell them what you thought was impressive about then and what they need to work on?) Do you provide goals and suggestions to work on for next time? Slide 17 Homework 1. Read Science and Inquiry Excerpts online. (will be posted by midnight tonight) 2. Look over sample lesson plan on antibiotics lab. 3. Come up with topics of discussion for next week. Note students were involved in last quarters lab class 10 th 11 th grade I will include other topics 4. Email me (quaninaquan@gmail.com) if you plan on taking this coursequaninaquan@gmail.com
