This interactive session equips educators with practical, on-the-go strategies to elevate student discourse and deepen connections to the Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs) in both physical and life sciences. Participants will explore how to match the right strategy to the right moment—whether launching an investigation, prompting students’ thinking during analysis, or concluding with evidence-based explanations. Through hands-on practice, discussion, and modeling, teachers will leave with a toolkit of adaptable moves they can immediately use to promote purposeful student talk and collaborative sensemaking in their classrooms. more info... 4/30/2026 6:00pm to 7:30pm Brad Rhew Switch to Calendar (Grid) Format | Hybrid Format | Printable Event Listing (PDF)
