Designing for Teacher Learning and Enduring Reform Within Science Education

Sun, April 10, 2:45 to 4:15pm, Convention Center, Floor: Level One, Room 101

Session Type: Structured Poster Session

Abstract

The purpose of this structured poster session is to discuss various approaches to and perspectives of designing for teacher learning in the context of science education reform, namely The Framework for K-12 Science Education (NRC, 2012) and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS Lead States, 2013). In particular, the papers in this session address efforts to support and facilitate teacher learning of reform and productively build partnerships with educators in their work toward enacting enduring and effective change that will broaden participation of a more diverse student body within science education. In line with the AERA call, the work of this session aims “to contribute to social progress…through a process of sustained public inquiry, rather than by being asserted…from…sanctioned institutions.”
