SUMMARY:Life Science Evolved: Teaching in the Age of NGSS (w/New Regents Labs!)
DESCRIPTION:Teaching Life Science in the Age of NGSS – w/New Regents Labs and assessment tricks for the new year!\n\n\nDates: July 15-19\, 2024 (in person) \nLed by: Chris Resch and Qiao Feng \nLocation: City College of New York \n  \nLife Science education is often associated with memorization. But does it have to be?  The Life Sciences is a subject rich in anchoring models that all tie together and build off each other and create a rich story of interactions and scale! Recent shifts in pedagogical research\, NGSS/NYS Regents standards have caused movement towards this more conceptually based approach to biology education. We want to help you move your lessons and teaching there as well! \n  \nJoin us for our upcoming workshop\, “Life Science Evolved: Teaching Life Science in the Age of NGSS.”  This workshop will explore active learning strategies for deepening your student’s understanding of these crucial conceptual models and help you effectively implement a student-centered\, NGSS and NYS Regents-aligned approach to life science education.  To do this\, we will engage with key experiments and activities that can help students build a critical understanding of these models. These experiments will include the three new Regents Biology labs: Structure and Function: Balancing Act – Exploring Feedback and Homeostasis\, Inheritance and Variation of Traits: Unraveling the Mystery of Lactose Intolerance\, and Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems: For the Birds – Designing Solutions.   \n  \nAdditionally\, participants will engage in both “student mode” and “teacher mode” so that they can experience these activities through both lenses and add practical tools to the teacher toolbox.  We will also have structured discussions about the new changes in the New York State Regents curriculum and test\, strategies for accommodating district-specific curricular requirements\, various student populations\, laboratory resources\, and the use of “Reflective Checklists” as a way of promoting student reflection throughout a unit. \n  \nWe welcome all teachers and administrators\, both new and experienced\, to join us for this engaging workshop! \n  \nCost: (Limited # of tickets!) \nEarly Bird $275 \nGeneral Admission Teacher Price $350 \nGeneral Admission School Price $500 \nSTEMteachersNYC delivers professional development workshops for teachers\, by teachers\, about teaching\, since 2011. All workshops over 2hrs offer CTLE. CUNY Pre-service teachers may attend for free. Please reach out if your school requires an invoice. We are an NYCDOE MTAC Vendor. \n  \nCurrent CUNY students with valid ID may attend summer workshops at a discount or for FREE! Please email registration@stemteachersnyc.org for details. \nEmail general questions to Registration@STEMteachersNYC.org. Note this workshop requires a minimum number of participants. In the event there are not enough participants\, the workshop will be cancelled\, and a refund will be issued. \n  \nInterested in an Invoice/Purchase Order Request? \nTeachers! Ask your school to pay for your ticket! All the school needs to do is send us a Purchase Order (PO). Fill out our PO/Invoice survey and we will prepare you an invoice for you to submit to your school/district. Or just copy and paste the information above and let them know the workshop you want to attend. Don’t be afraid to ask. There’s always a chance the money will be available and they’ll say yes\, but if you don’t ask\, there’s no chance at all. \nDistricts/Schools\, to request an invoice for a STEMteachersNYC Workshop\, please fill out a quick invoice survey. This is a required step in order to process your request. Any questions regarding the PO process please contact bookkeeper@stemteachersnyc.org \nPlease send Purchase Orders (POs) to our Billing Office \nVia Email: bookkeeper@stemteachersnyc.org \nOR Via US Mail: STEMteachersNYC – Billing Office 245 West 107th Street\, Suite 10B New York\, NY 10025. \n  \nPlease read the FAQs section below carefully before registering. \n  \nFAQs \nIs STEMteachersNYC an approved NYC DOE CTLE Vendor? \nYes. STEMteachersNYC is a Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) vendor for the New York City Department of Education (#STE-068881). New York State Teachers will receive a CTLE certificate at the end of the workshop. (CTLE ID # 23385) \n  \nHow can I contact the organizer with any questions? \nQuestions about registration or tickets should be addressed to registration@STEMteachersNYC.org. \nQuestions about invoice/PO issues should be addressed to bookkeeper@STEMteachersNYC.org \nQuestions about our programs should be addressed to info@STEMteachersNYC.org \n  \nIs the full workshop fee or the balance of the workshop fee refundable? \nRefunds for the balance of the full workshop fee (that is\, the full fee minus the reservation fee) must be requested within one (1) week of payment and at least four (4) weeks before the start of the workshop. All such requests must be accompanied by an acceptable\, documented explanation.

SUMMARY:Applied Panarchy in Environmental Science (HS)
DESCRIPTION:Explore active learning strategies for deepening understanding of crucial concepts in environmental and sustainability science!\n\n\nLeaders: Glen Stuart and Dani Blecher \nDates: July 15 – 19\, 2024 (9:00-3:00pm) \nAbout the Workshop \nThe Applied Panarchy in Environmental Science (HS) workshop will explore active learning strategies for deepening understanding of crucial concepts in environmental and sustainability science and help effectively implement a student-centered and NGSS aligned approach to science education. \nParticipants will engage in thought-provoking\, pertinent experiments\, and activities that you can utilize in your own classroom. We will spend time observing instruction from the point of view of a student (“student-mode”)\, and learn strategies to incorporate in their own classroom using the claim\, evidence\, reasoning (CER) framework\, Social Ecological Systems (SES)\, transdisciplinary thinking\, and panarchy as tools to probe student preconceptions. Periodically\, participants will switch to “teacher-mode”\, to practice Socratic questioning techniques\, analyze readings\, and discuss the pedagogical rationale for all aspects of active learning and modeling in Environmental Science. We’ll also discuss the use of “Reflective Checklists” as a way of promoting student reflection throughout a unit. \n \nCost: (Limited # of tickets!) \nEarly Bird $275 \nGeneral Admission Teacher Price $350 \nGeneral Admission School Price $500 \nSTEMteachersNYC delivers professional development workshops for teachers\, by teachers\, about teaching\, since 2011.
