Topic 1: What is science and how it works

# data[].attributes.body
Before NS 100, my thinking of science and its workings was fundamental. Now I have a more in-depth understanding of what science is and how it works. This will help me implement it better in the classroom. I am more confident.
My thinking about science and how it works has changed because I realized that science is based in facts and has no political agenda.
I plan to continue growing my thinking of science and how it works by continuing to seek out scientific facts and not listen to theories that are not based in science.

Topic 2: How the scientific method relates to the scientific inquiry and how inquiry based learning impacts student learning

# data[].attributes.body
Before NS 100 my thinking on how the scientific method relates to the scientific inquiry and how inquiry based learning impacts student learning was that I did not know what scientific inquiry was, and how to apply it to learning. I was aware of the steps to the scientific method.
My thinking about how the scientific method relates to the scientific inquiry and how inquiry based learning impacts student learning changed a lot. I learned that scientific inquiry and the scientific method work together to encourage students to be more critical thinkers. I also learned the scientific methods steps can be done out of order.
I will continue to grow in my thinking on how the scientific method relates to the scientific inquiry and how inquiry based learning impacts student learning by showing my students how to use scientific inquiry and scientific to solve problems.

Topic 3: The characteristics of life and what it means to be alive

# data[].attributes.body
Before NS 100 my thinking on the characteristics of life and what it means to be alive was very limited.  I had no idea it was so complex.
My thinking about the characteristics of life and what it means to be alive has changed tremendously. I learned that all living things share DNA,and a common ancestor.
I will continue to grow learning more about the characteristics of life and what it means to be alive paying more attention to genetic mutations that I may encounter.

Topic 4: How microscopic changes have macroscopic effects

# data[].attributes.body
Before NS 100 my thinking on how microscopic changes have macroscopic effects was not there, I had never thought about it.
My thinking about how microscopic changes have macroscopic effects has changed because I now understand what it is. It was interesting to learn about sickle cell anemia and how it is transmitted.
I will continue to grow in my thinking on how microscopic changes have macroscopic effect by continuing to learn abut them, so I can be more aware

My scientific perspective has changed because now I have a deeper understanding of scientific knowledge and can use scientific inquiry to approach my questions.
I will continue to grow my scientific prospective by apply what I have learned to my life and in the classroom.

Topic 6: How your experiences with NS 100 relate to your apprenticeship in the classroom

# data[].attributes.body
Before NS 100 my experiences with NS 100 relate to your apprenticeship in the classroom I had a little knowledge of science.
My thinking on how my experiences with NS 100 relate to your apprenticeship in the classroom I did not realize how important science is in creating critical tinkers. It has changed the way I approach and solve problems. I can't wait to bring it to my classroom.
I will continue to grow by using the knowledge that I learned in NS 100 in my classroom to create critical thinkers.
