The new NC science standards leverage science and engineering practices (SEPs). Modeling is the central practice of the SEPs and the process of incorporating them into courses can feel rather daunting. Where to start? What are the expectations for students? Join us to learn how to take one of your lessons and make it even more engaging using our shared strategies. Participants will leave with ready-to-go lessons they can implement into their classrooms.
