Open to: High School Science Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: In this Professional Learning series, participants will engage in an in-depth exploration of “literacy beyond the textbook”. Participants during this series will do the following:
- Explore how different text sources can augment traditional high school textbook resources;
- Explore how, as science teachers, we can build our students’ skills in interpreting, synthesizing, and communicating information from text sources;
- Focus on strategies for selecting text sources, ways to build students’ skills in interpretation, sense making and validation of primary and secondary scientific texts; and
- Finally, learn how to use texts to support culturally responsive teaching and critical analysis of current events in science.
