These are the #rubrics I’m developing w schools now. We center on what #students CAN do, what’s next, & actionable steps (w links to resources) to grow. Symbols could be added, but most of the time aren’t needed. We need measures to support self-efficacy. #sblchat #ATAssessment

Great session and great resources! Thanks Sarah Delaney & the OpenSciEd teachers who shared their strategies!

That's a wrap on #NSTASpring24 ! Thank you to all the outstanding presenters who championed #OpenSciEd at the conference. You helped ignite countless teachers' passion for phenomenon-based science education (and sparked their interest in OpenSciEd 🤩)! #OpenSciEd atNSTA

It's been a great week in Denver sharing work from our #NSFfunded #ECUITY project at NARST and a full house at #NSTASpring24 exploring notebooks as tools for guiding instruction around students’ ideas. Grateful for collaborations with BSCS Science Learning & SCALE Science/SNAP on this work!

During #NSTASpring24 , Sarah Delaney shared the Substitute Plan Strategies guide. This resource offers crowd-sourced substitute plans and strategies gathered from educators globally who utilize OpenSciEd materials in their teaching.
