How do we support students in building evidence-based explanations of phenomena? Watch this edWebinar to experience how a multimodal approach allows students to gather evidence from a variety of sources and grapple with phenomena and real-world problems like scientists do. We unpack structures from the K-8 Amplify Science curriculum and consider how a deep understanding of NGSS can support you in making principled pedagogical decisions.
This recorded edWebinar is of interest to K-12 teachers, school and district leaders, and education technology leaders.
