Increasing student engagement through AHA moments: Supporting the NGSS with POGIL

  • 13 Dec 2019
  • 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
  • NSTA Area Conference on Science Education "Fostering a Culture for Science" Seattle Convention Center, Seattle, WA

One-day introductory workshop for middle school through college STEM instructors. 

Immerse yourself in collaborative learning to explore connections between POGIL strategies and the NGSS. Experience the roles, teamwork, and process skills that engage students and improve content mastery and retention. Appropriate for middle school, high school, and college/university science instructors, Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) is a research-based instructional strategy that seeks to simultaneously incorporate the Performance Expectations, SEPs, and CCCs of the NGSS. These student-centered learning strategies support all students, from ELL and SPEC through gifted, as they create their own understanding of fundamental STEM concepts as they work through carefully designed guided inquiry activities. 

Fee for short course $55 early registration; $60 on site
