Check out this new blog on supporting ELs/MLs in science! By Dr. Emily Miller (formerly of WI), along w/ Drs. Emily Reigh & Jenn Bateman. It shares five specific strategies with more details linked for each one - wisdpiscience.blogspot.com/2…
Grateful to Sarah Blechacz who guest wrote my most recent blog post - wisdpiscience.blogspot.com/2…. She tells the story of the Wauwatosa School Dist working toward improving access for all students to great high school science! It is part 3 of my #detracking #science series.
How do you feel about #tracking in high school #science courses? I think we can do better. Research generally shows it negatively affects students. Check out a case study of how one high school in Wisconsin got rid of 9th and 10th grade tracking. wisdpiscience.blogspot.com/2…

Happy #EarthDay! We just published our framework for #ClimateJustice Education with 12 intersecting dimensions that provide starting points to identify what should be taught, with whom, and how. Check it out!

ALT STEM Teaching Tool #97 Shows an abstract sun diagram with Climate Justice Education in the middle surrounded by a circle of What? Who? and How? On the edges of the sun are the 12 dimensions: Everyday and Everywhere, Frontline Focused, Community Self-Determination, Culturally Sustaining, Multi-Generational, Ecological Caring with Humility, Place-Based & Outdoor Learning, Multiple Ways of Knowing, Multiple Lines of Evidence, Solution- and Action-Focused, Drawdown & Regeneration, Learning for Transformation Title of the linked document: What is climate justice learning?
Why do we persist in #tracking students in high school science classes, when we know evidence does not support it? I talk about that a bit in a recent blog post (and the coming part 2 will share a school's story in this regard) - wisdpiscience.blogspot.com/2…

"Of all the arguments supporting increased investment in STEM education... (one) argument eclipses each of them: STEM improves the lives of individuals... and in so doing,... improves communities and the country at large." in --> fas.org/publication/k-12-ste… #STEMeducation #STEM
