STEMscopes At-Home and Virtual Learning Lessons

Earlier this year, we created video lessons and resources to help teachers (and parents) teach science in a virtual setting, and we've got great news: you can still access all of that and more on our YouTube channel.

We've also added new Virtual Learning lessons within the STEMscopes Science curriculum for continued hands-on learning from home. Check out this video to learn more about our Virtual Learning lessons for grades K-2, 3-5, and middle school:

How do students know what was just assigned (Weinstock)

# data[].attributes.body
In the "Assigning Student Work" video we watched as a group, the video narrator logged into the student account to show what a student will see once we assign a task in STEMScopes. The video showed that, as a mock student, the video narrator needed to click to a specific tab ("Lab" topic) to view the assignment. There was no indication that I noticed from the video that there was any new assignment posted in the "Lab" topic tab. How does a student know they've been assigned new work and where to find it unless the teacher shares this info explicitly with students?

How much of an investment should we make with Stemscopes if this may not be available next year?

Sophanie and I agreed that StepScopes has great resources to pull from for labs, readings, phet simulations and videos! We are excited to add these resources to our classroom curriculum this year!

AWESOME RESOURCES SUCH AS LABS AND VIDEOS. Google classroom and assignment are useful.

Like the comprehensive integrated components of this unit. Visuals are great and can be adapted for SAI usage.

After having time to both receive guidance from Lisa and explore individually and with my GLT, I am feeling more confident knowing STEMScopes is a very flexible, scalable, robust resource I can use to supplement my Science curriculum. My next steps will be to sit down with my co-teacher to see how she has used STEMScopes in the past to continue gaining insight into how I might leverage this valuable resource to optimize my instruction. Thank you, Lisa! Thank you 6th grade team!

# data[].attributes.body
I learned a lot about STEMScopes and how to use the many different resources available. I look forward to implementing the activities, videos, slides, and more, during the upcoming school year.

There is A LOT of content to try to filter through ... could definitely use  more collab time to see what is applicable and can be integrated into our actual units. ~ My
