Something that resonates with me... en-us 2020-06-03 00:04:59 UTC 2026-03-02 18:10:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609160328 The idea that Phenomena should be observable occurrences to help the students develop the problem is significant.  I think learning to use the data and tools we are given is an important step in developing the analysis and explanations.

I agree with that last row is important. I teach high school and I still have learned that I can't expect the background knowledge to have stuck with them. Equity is going to be more important.]]> 2020-06-03 15:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609160328 chelseabentley https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609160410 Driving instruction based on a scientific phenomenon takes lift from teachers and allows students to have more power in the classroom. It's like backwards instruction--the kids can find multiple ways to make sense of the observable phenomenon--there's not necessarily one right way.]]> 2020-06-03 15:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609160410 https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609162479 2020-06-03 15:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609162479 https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609162688 A phenomenon should be used to help engage students in what they are learning. It can create an interest in the topic and allow them the opportunity to actively think about and question the topic. ]]> 2020-06-03 15:21:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609162688 https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609163050 I appreciated the clarification that the phenomenon is not the ANSWER to what is going on - it's the observation that sparks the questions.  I think this would be important to make sure that students (and myself here) understand that.  I very much appreciated the last row reminding us what student engagement is.

You are looking for an explanation for them.

This should be used as a hook to get students interested in the concept. ]]> 2020-06-03 15:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mcurless/4u95rg2mhrrskwfx/wish/609180045
