Teach Science the Way It’s Practiced: Transforming Grades 8-12 for Rigor & Equity

Innovation in Education Pedagogy & Assessment Data in Education Literacy & New Media
February 2025 - 21CLHK

Upper-school students now live in a hyperconnected, interdisciplinary world. Are you ready to break down silos and embrace multiple science disciplines, technology, engineering, data science, design, disciplinary literacy and applied math? Do you dream of vertical coherence that is both rigorous and equitable? Come see the real deal: a multi-year science program for Grades 8-12 that breaks every mold to serve every student. Innovate with flexible implementation models, comprehensive curricula, competency-based assessment, local issues (SDGs), and school customizations! Join this session to discuss flexible interdisciplinary pathways that can stand alone, include AP and IB, and/or coordinate with STEAM Labs and Maker Spaces.

Please bring a charged laptop/tablet–we will be sharing lots of resources best viewed on larger screens!
