Description

This workshop will explore the specific teaching competences that are required to guide students and to create opportunities by which students can gather and interrogate evidence and information. Teachers will engage in hands on learning while they explore a number of sample investigations.

Using exemplars, we will explore different methods of recording and representing student achievement of the Science Inquiry Skills, including how the Achievement Standards can be used to make on-balance judgments about the quality of learning demonstrated by the students.

Who should attend: Secondary/Middle school teachers.

Morning tea and lunch will be provided
