With the return to in-person school, educators are committed to building back classrooms and systems better than before. Science teaching and learning can play a key role in these efforts to be responsive to school and student needs.

In this edWebinar, watch Rebecca Abbott, Professional Learning Lead from UC Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science, to explore how phenomena-based science instruction can ensure deep learning and engagement for all students, as well as accelerate learning for those most impacted by the learning disruptions of the past year.

This recorded edWebinar will be of interest to kindergarten through middle school teachers, librarians, school and district leaders, STEM coordinators, summer school coordinators, and technology coordinators.
