How can you engage and support diverse learners through discussion? In this session, we will share strategies and supports to get your biology students talking as they analyze patterns in the distribution of species across the United States and build a consensus definition for the term ecosystem. By sharing ideas and building on each other’s understanding, students will make powerful connections to content and practices.
