SUMMARY:Introduction to Coding Physics Simulations for Teachers (HS)
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we will learn the basics of the JavaScript within the p5.js environment with a focus on constructing physics simulations.\n\n\nIntroduction to Coding Physics Simulations for Teachers \nLeader: Paul Feffer \nDate: Saturday\, March 25\, 2023\, 9am-12pm EDT \nAbout the Workshop \nIn this professional development workshop for teachers\, we will learn the basics of the JavaScript programming language within the p5.js environment with a focus on constructing physics simulations. Javascript is one of the most popular programming languages today which is used for web app development and desktop and mobile applications. p5.js is a JavaScript library of “tools” designed for creative coding with easy access to graphics and animation. These capabilities make p5.js ideal for physics teachers with little or no programming experience to start coding physics simulations! \nWhile three hours is hardly enough time for the briefest of introductions\, you will learn enough to get started and to find resources to continue your journey. As we cover some basic programming concepts\, you will code simulations for objects (1) moving at constant velocity\, (2) accelerating under the influence of a net force such as gravity\, allowing us to simulate projectile motion\, and (3) oscillating under a linear restoring force (a.k.a. a spring). As time permits\, we may also explore simulating orbital dynamics\, and how to use “leapfrog” integration to ensure a stable oscillatory motion that conserves energy. \n \n \nCost:  $25 (Limited # of tickets!) \nSTEMteachersNYC delivers professional development workshops for teachers\, by teachers\, about teaching\, since 2011.

SUMMARY:Capturing Student Interest with Phenomena - 2 Part Workshop (ES)
DESCRIPTION:Leaders: Juliette Guarino Berg and Kathy Renfrew \n\n\n\nDates: February 25 and March 11\, 2023 (9:00am-12:00pm EDT\, via Zoom) \n\n\n\nAbout the Workshop \n\n\n\nNOTE – All participants will receive a materials kit in advance. \n\n\n\nPart 1: Capturing Student Interest with Phenomena \n\n\n\nWe will kick off the workshop having everyone engage in with a scientific phenomenon in student-mode. Participants will continue to work in student mode to generate noticings and wonderings as well as create models that attempt to explain what they have observed. Once participants have had the opportunity to share their models with each other\, they will develop questions about the models and determine whether those questions can be answered in the science classroom. Throughout the session\, relevant texts\, trade books\, and media will be introduced and discussed. \n\n\n\nAGENDA for Part 1 \n\n\n\n\nStudent Mode! Energy stick and tuning fork phenomena.\n\n\n\nNotice and Wonder. Draw a model – What do you think is happening?\n\n\n\nShare-out of thoughts and ideas.\n\n\n\nWhere have you seen things like this before? Whole Group Discussion and/or grade level groups.\n\n\n\nDeveloping and Asking Questions.\n\n\n\n\nPart 2: Using Texts and Other Media to Support Quality Science Instruction \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we take a dive into how science and literacy are dependent upon one another. In student mode\, participants will use the science and engineering practices in an investigation that could help to explain the observed phenomenon. After performing the investigation\, we will make a claim supported by evidence and reasoning\, as well as a second claim about how the investigation was important for understanding the phenomenon. Is this enough evidence? We will engage in discussions about how texts can be used to provide additional evidence to support our claim. Throughout the workshop\, participants will have opportunities to engage in many of the practices of scientists and engineers\, including reading\, writing\, speaking\, and listening. Many resources will be collected\, shared\, and discussed. \n\n\n\nAgenda for Part 2 \n\n\n\n\nExamining student mode questions from Part 1.\n\n\n\nInvestigation: Squishy Circuits (LEDs and Buzzers). Explain how squishy circuits demonstrates transfer of energy.\n\n\n\nWhat additional evidence do I need to support my claim? How can using text support literacy as well as using supporting science ?\n\n\n\nExpand meaning of text: photos\, maps\, diagrams\, infographic etc.\n\n\n\nAdditional for Lower Grade Band – Sound Travel Through Air\, Sound Travel Through Liquid\, Sound Travel Through Solids.\n\n\n\n\n4th grade Performance Expectations (4-PS3-2): Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound\, light\, heat\, and electric currents. \n\n\n\nCrosscutting Concepts: Cause and Effect and Energy Transfer \n\n\n\nWe will also be addressing common core literacy writing\, speaking and listening and reading standards.
