This is pretty cool!
Well that’s a wrap! Thank you Round 3 #OpenSciEd facilitators for your enthusiasm, wisdom, and guidance. We couldn’t do it without you! #ItTakesAVillage
Curious about the new Thermal Energy OpenSciEd unit? In this 1 hour webinar on 11/4, we will provide an overview of the unit and engage participants in parts of the storyline. Register at bit.ly/thermalenergyw… #openscied #webinar #oer #NGSS @stemwhitney
When I think about vocabulary I think about “just in time “ learning. #ngss Context, conceptual experience very important prior to offering the scientific language .
Say it louder! Say NO to frontloading! It's not effective. Also TELLING Ss what they are "about to learn" is no way to get students to do any of the intellectual work. People who suggest otherwise don't believe (certain) Ss CAN learn #FiguringOut #BestPractices #ResearchBased

What does it mean for students to figure things out together? This is a great example of how students can make explicit the norms that will guide their shared mission together. #OpenSciEd #normsmatter #NGSSchat

"For years, educators have complained that they lacked materials aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards, but a new effort called OpenSciEd is slowly releasing a free, open curriculum that many say is high-quality." Thanks, @EdWeekEdTech for sharing! #materialsmatter

It's our goal to lower as many barriers as possible for teachers & students to access high quality science materials. Which is why we are providing free digital access to our materials & are partnering with Kendall Hunt to provide printed books at extremely low prices. #OER #NGSS
Our Teacher Handbook is a resource that provides overviews of features of the #OpenSciEd units that support #3D #NGSS science instruction and may be new to many teachers. It is intended as a reference rather than a front-to-back read and can be found here openscied.org/resources/
Thank you @OpenSciEd. We are proud to be a collaborator in ensuring any science teacher, anywhere, can access and download freely available, high quality, locally adaptable full-course materials, aligned to the NGSS.

Pumped about this big milestone in a project that I have been working on for pretty much all of my time in graduate school. So pumped that I’m even tweeting about it from vacation.
