The ability to ask good questions and clearly define problems is essential for everyone. ]]> 2017-10-11 17:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196150233 Practice 2: Developing and Using Models sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196151447 Models include diagrams, physical replicas, representations, analogies and computer simulations. They are used to represent and analyze a system. Students can be expected to evaluate, make predictions and recognize their limitations. ]]> 2017-10-11 17:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196151447 Practice 3: Planning and Carrying Out Investigations sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196153882 Students should have opportunities to investigate. Investigations should be engaging and expose an issue or question they wouldn't explore on their own.]]> 2017-10-11 18:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196153882 Practice 4: Analyzing and Interpreting Data sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196156982 When data is collects they must be presented in a way that they reveal patterns and relationships that allow results to communicate to others. Students should be able to analyze and bring out meaning from the data. ]]> 2017-10-11 18:05:18 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196156982 Practice 5: Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196158577 Students are expected to us math to represent physical variables and their relationships. Other math applications in science include logic and geometry. ]]> 2017-10-11 18:08:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196158577 Practice 6: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196159681 Students are expected to construct their own explanations from what they learned from the teacher or reading. The goal is to create solutions to problems systematically.]]> 2017-10-11 18:10:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196159681 Practice 7: Engaging in Argument from Evidence sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196160716 Students engage in scientific arguments to understand the culture in which scientist live and how to apply science to benefit society. ]]> 2017-10-11 18:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196160716 Practice 8: Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information sulema_latina https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196161701 Develop students ability to read, interpret and produce scientific and technical text. Communicating information, evidence and ideas can be done in  various ways, such as: tables, diagrams, graphs, models, interactive displays, equations, orally, written and through discussion]]> 2017-10-11 18:14:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sulema_latina/f03jvtfh87my/wish/196161701
