Calling All Middle and High School Teachers!!!
This could be your last opportunity to join the 2023 Climate Science Canvas Courses!

Climate Science 5.0: Supporting Student Thinking Through Anchoring Phenomenon

 

Description: In this FREE online asynchronous Canvas Course, attendees will learn a protocol for developing and using Anchoring Phenomenon as a means for students to explain their thinking and understanding of scientific concepts. In this context of the course, the protocol will be applied to a climate science topic. The design for this course was based on feedback from Washington State's nine Regional Science Coordinators and Science Fellows. It is delivered to grade-banded cohorts working hand-in-hand with the guidance of Emeritus Science Fellows.

 

MARCH Cohort runs from MARCH 1 through MARCH 31, 2023.
