This  is  What a Scientist Looks  Like  Blog

# data[].attributes.body
http://lookslikescience.tumblr.com/

A blog that showcases a diverse range of scientists and what they do.

I would use this at the beginning of the year in an intro unit to uncover bias in science. Many students have anxiety around STEM and find it inaccessible. A lot of this fear comes from stereotyping.

After a google image search of "science/scientist" and reflection, I would then have the students explore and reflect on this blog.

Students could also use this as an exemplar for possibly creating their own student ran science blog.

"What did Earth look like 250 million years ago? Or 1 billion years ago? Or 4.5 billion years ago? EarthViewer is an interactive tool that allows you to explore the science of Earth's deep history."

Interactive earth viewer by different era  (climate, carbon ratios, extinction events, etc.).

I would use Earth View in an evolution unit  or a geoscience unit to help students conceptualize changes over time (this tends to be a challenge for students). Earth Viewer could be used in a WebQuest, or could be a useful tool for making prediction about climate change.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHnyfMqiRRG1u-2MsSQLbXA

A science and engineering YouTube channel.

I plan on utilizing this You Tube channel for experiments w/self-tests, to explore misconceptions at the start of a unit, or to simply enjoy some of the music videos for a brain break.

http://webquest.org/

WebQuest.org  offers a wide variety of WebQuests as well as free templates to create your  own.

I will utilize the templates to create WebQuests centered around an NGSS content objective.

WebQuests could also be a part of a learning menu for students who like to work independently and with tech.

WebQuests may also be useful when there is a sub because they are very self directed and students can do them at their own pace.

WebQuests could be a good resource for students who finish assignments  or labs  early and need a backup activity.

https://kahoot.com/

A platform to create custom online quizzes (multiple choice or T/F).

I will also use Kahoot for non-consequential quizzes to assess knowledge at the beginning of a lesson. This will also be helpful in activating prior knowledge.

Kahoot quizzes could also be used at the end of a lesson or unit.

Students could create their own Kahoot quizzes as a way to review and test their peers.

See video:

ARIS is an online platform which students can use to create mobile-based tours, games, and interactive stories.

There are two main elements to ARIS. One part of the platform is the editor, which allows you to build the tours, games and interactive stories. The other part is the iOS app that allows students to play and explore the things their classmates (or teacher :-D ) created.

ARIS is a valuable tech tool for differentiated product (tour/story/game). I will utilize ARIS as an option for creating a final product for assessment at the end of a unit.

NOTE: iOS needed to play! Make sure if using ARIS it is inclusive and there are iOS systems available to everyone!

Native Knowledge 360° is the National Museum of the American Indian's national initiative to inspire and promote improvement of teaching and learning about American Indians.

I would utilize several key components of Native Knowledge 360.  There are lots of articles, full lesson plans, and several online interactive games. I will utilize the PNW Salmon online game for an ecology unit about human impact.

https://www.flinnsci.com/online-resources/lab-safety-courses/

Flinn Scientific has a thorough online lab safety training course and high school lab safety contracts.

This is an invaluable resource for educators who will have wet labs because their safety training offers legal protection if an accident occurs in your lab. It is also highly beneficial to refresh lab safety training.

I will utilize Flinn the high school lab safety contracts. They are incredibly thorough and require a student/parent signature.

https://www.commonsense.org/education/

A Non-profit organization that carefully curates and freely provides tech related ed  resources all in one place.

I will utilize the, "For Educators" page which has digital citizenship lessons, ed tech by grade/subject (with teacher reviews!), and a blog that is all things ed tech related.

I will use this website to stay up to date on tech resources and to also see if tech resources I plan to use have been rated by other educators.

https://read.activelylearn.com/#teacher/catalog/?subject=science

Science texts for with ELA scaffolds and higher-order questions.

Activity Learn offers relevant and interesting science articles for students. Some of the articles have games and videos to supplement the content. Scientific vocabulary is linked to definitions.

Activity Learn will be helpful in supporting literacy standards. The "High Interest Articles" section show cases articles that would peak student interest and could be  used to pique interest.

https://www.youtube.com/user/AmoebaSisters

A YouTube channel that features two cartoon amoeba sisters who explore a wide range of science topics.

I will utilize the lab safety video and turn it into an ed tech puzzle  at the start  of a new term to review lab safety.

I also find their cartoon illustrations useful to help students visualize microscopic procese such  as enzyme binding and mitosis.

https://nearpod.com/

NearPod offers an extensive library of interactive online lesson plans.  The main features of NearPod are digital drawing, short answer responses, video clips, quizzes, polls, and even 3D expeditions.

NearPod is an engaging platform. Students following along on computers with their peers and teacher. The teacher sets the pace and controls the content as the class moves through the lesson together.

I will utilize NearPod intermittently throughout the academic year as a way to differentiate instructional method.

https://www.pbslearningmedia.org/

PBS offers a plethora of educational resources including activities and handouts, videos, articles, and full lesson plans.

I have the option of assigning PBS media activities through google classroom (ex: evolution lab).

I will utilize the biodiversity timeline activity.  Once finished students can submit their work through google classroom.

Good for sub days, makeup work, or extra-credit.

https://newsela.com/

Teachers can utilize NewaELA to create custom activities and instructions, assign sets of articles, and control the reading levels students see.

I find a lot of value in the setting lexile feature. The same  articles can be set by lexile or grade making it easy to differentiate for students.

There are also end of article quizzes that can be useful for assessing comprehension.

https://www.marinetech.org/curriculum/

Online partnership that develops curricula in marine technology, underwater robotics, marine geospatial technology, career awareness, and ocean observing systems.

For model building NGSS standards, MATE robotics and circuit labs will be an engaging and hands on resource.

MATE kits would be useful in units focusing on marine ecology or human impact.

https://www.nationalgeographic.org/education/

Similar to PBS, NatGeo offers a wide variety of resources to bolster lessons and units.

Under featured collections, there are resources that are matched to science standards. I will utilize the curriculum to assist in lesson planing, or may have students access the materials for relevant videos and 3D ecosystem explorations.
