A New Generation of Goals for Scientific Modeling: Strategies and Lessons Learned for Reach and Impact
Fri, April 17, 12:00 to 1:30pm, Virtual RoomSession Type: Symposium
Abstract
In this symposium, we offer new goals and challenges for scientific modeling that demonstrate efforts to address the diverse student populations and contexts within which we work. Specifically, the studies discuss educational goals that have historically been left out of mainstream research on scientific modeling. These goals constitute an important subset of interests that add to the discourse on “what works, for whom, under what conditions” including science curricula for elementary students, English Language Learners, the development of students’ epistemic cognition, real world district level asymmetries, and creating high quality online PD for greater geographic impact and reach.
