About this Event
Who: Open to all grades 6-12 Physical Science (e.g., chemistry, physics, physical sciences at middle school) teachers
When: Tuesday - Thursday, June 25, 26, & 27, 2024
Where: In-person at the Allegheny Intermediate Unit
Price: Free to all AIU3 educators; Educators outside AIU3: $450
Administrators are encouraged to attend with the teacher(s) from their district/building
Act 48 hours will be awarded pending approval by PDE for those who attend all sessions and complete all related assignments.
Attendees will develop a shared understanding of phenomenon-based and problem-driven science teaching and learning that effectively incorporates all three dimensions of the science standards (disciplinary core ideas, science and engineering practices, & crosscutting concepts) and provides equitable, inclusive instruction.
Participants will engage, as learners and as teachers, with the pedagogical practices that foster reasoning and sense-making in the science classroom and support equity and access for all students. They will also gain access to tools and resources for the teaching and learning of the physical sciences at their grade band as they become familiar with what instruction in physical science looks and feels like when implementing the science standards from PA STEELS.
Over the course of the three days, participants will explore the progression of the physical science standards from the PA Science, Technology & Engineering, Environmental Literacy & Sustainability (STEELS) standards within the middle school and high school grade bands.
